Abstract
Sodium N-chlorobenzenesulfonamide (chloramine-B, CAB), sodium N-bromo- p-toluenesulfonamide (bromamine-T, BAT) and N,N′-dibromo- p-toluenesulfonamide (dibromamine-T, DBT) are employed as analytical reagents for estimating indigocarmine (IC) in solution. A four-electron stoichiometry is observed within 30 min in the following media: CAB, 0.1–1.0 N HCl or H 2SO 4 and pH 1 buffer; BAT, 0.01–0.10 N NaOH; DBT, glacial acetic acid. The back titration methods are fairly rapid, simple, and accurate. The product of oxidation, isatinsulfonate, was estimated by spectrophotometric measurements at 410 nm. The sulfonamides formed by reduction of the haloamines are detected by TLC and paper chromatography.
