Determination of benzhexol hydrochloride by capillary zone electrophoresis with an end-column electrochemiluminescence detection

摘要

A capillary zone electrophoresis with end-column electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detector was described for the determination of benzhexol hydrochloride. The detection was based on the tris(2,2'-bypyridine)ruthenium(II) [Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)] ECL reaction with the analyte. Electrophoresis was performed using a 25 mum i.d. uncoated capillary. 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer (pH=8.0) was used as the running buffer. The solution in the detection cell was 80 mM sodium phosphate (pH=8.0) and 5 mM)21 Ru(bpy)(3)(2+). A linear calibration curve of three-orders of magnitude was obtained (with a correlation coefficient of > 0.999) from 1.0X10(-8) to 1.0X10(-5) M and the limit of detection was 6.7 X 10(-9) M (S/N= 3). This just provides an easy and sensitive method to determine the active ingredient in pharmaceutical formulations. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
