title: Spectrophotometric determination of atropine, pilocarpine and strychnine with chloranilic acid.
abstract: In dioxan-chloroform medium the acceptor chloranilic acid forms 1:1 molecular complexes with the alkaloids atropine, pilocarpine and strychnine, with maximum absorption at 535, 527.5 and 535 nm respectively. Conformity with Beer's law allows the use of the complexes for the assay of these drugs.
