Abstract
A spot test using 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride for the detection of benzoic acid hydrazide, and itsm- andp-nitro derivatives, isonicotinic acid hydrazide, salicylic acid hydrazide and phenylacetic acid hydrazide is described. The method consists of treating 0.1 to 0.2 ml of 0.001 % hydrazide (for benzoic acid hydrazide a 0.0001 %) solution with 0.2 to 0.4 ml of 0.02M sodium hydroxide, 0.2 ml of 1% 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride and 0.2 ml of nitrobenzene oriso-butyl methyl ketone in a micro test tube. A reddish-brown colour in the organic phase confirms the presence of an aromatic hydrazide. The identification limits for benzoic acid hydrazide, itsm- andp-nitro derivatives, isonicotinic acid hydrazide, salicylic acid hydrazide, phenylacetic acid hydrazide respectively are: 0.2, 1.0, 1.0, 3.5, 3.0, 2.0μg in 1 ml in nitrobenzene and 0.2, 0.2, 0.1, 3.0, 0.2, 1.5μg in 1 ml iniso- butyl methyl ketone. The interference of various substances and anions has been studied.
