Abstract

Abstract A high-pressure liquid chromatographic method is presented for the isolation and determination of uncombined intermediates in FD&C Yellow No. 6 (sunset yellow FCF, CI. No. 15895). Samples of FD&C Yellow No. 6 containing 0.1-0.4% sulfanilic acid, 0.1-0.4% 6-hydroxy-2-naphthalenesulfonic acid, and 0.3— 1.0% 6,6'-oxybis(2-naphthalenesulfonic acid) were prepared and analyzed using this method. Recoveries ranged between 94 and 101%. Twenty-two samples of FD&C Yellow No. 6 were analyzed by the conventional column elution chromatographic method as well as by the high-pressure liquid chromatographic method. Good agreement was obtained between the 2 methods.
