Determination of chlorpromazine and thioridazine by differential pulse voltammetry in acetonitrile medium.
This work describes optimal conditions for the determination of chlorpromazine and thioridazine by DPV, with a detection limit of 4.0 x 10(-7)M (0.16 microg/ml). The well-defined peaks indicate that direct measurement in a medium of 0.03 M perchloric acid in acetonitrile is possible and the use of DPV is advantageous when small amounts are to be determined. The sample procedure for pharmaceutical tablets is simple and fast. The method is useful for control of the quality and purity of phenothiazine drugs. The possibility of using numerical analysis to resolve composite signals of the compounds studied has also been demonstrated.
