Proton magnetic resonance (PMR) spectroscopic determination of mechlorethamine hydrochloride for injection in commercial unit doses.
A simple PMR spectroscopic method was developed for the quantitative determination of mechlorethamine hydrochloride for injection in commercial unit doses. Deuterium oxide was used as the PMR solvent and tert-butyl alcohol served as the internal standard. The mean +/- SD% recovery value of mechlorethamine hydrochloride from synthetic formulations was 99.5 +/- 0.83, with a coefficient of variation of 0.83%. The mean content of mechlorethamine hydrochloride in a group of ten commercial unit doses was 99.3% by the PMR method and 99.4% by the titrimetric method of U. S. P. XX.
