  • A sensitive spectrophotometric method for determination of carbon tetrachloride
    Journal of the Indian Chemical Society, 2005
    Co-Authors: Sukumar Chatterjee, V. K. Gupta
    Abstract:

    A sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of carbon tetrachloride (CTC) in ppm level is described. The method involves the modification of the Fujiwara Reaction i.e. discharging the colour with glacial acetic acid followed by addition of p-aminoacetophenone reagent which results in the formation of the purple red coloured polymethine dye having an absorption maximum at 495 nm. Beer's law is obeyed in the range of 4.0-36 μg (0.4-3.6 ppm) of carbon tetrachloride per 10 ml of solution. The sensitivity of the conventional Fujiwara procedure is increased after this modification. The method has been successfully applied for the determination of carbon tetrachloride in air, laundry air and biological samples.

  • A sensitive colorimetric method for determination of chloroform
    Indian Journal of Chemical Technology, 1999
    Co-Authors: Ajai K. Pillai, Rachana Rastogi, V. K. Gupta
    Abstract:

    A sensitive colorimetric method for determination of chloroform in ppm level is described, which is based on modification of Fujiwara Reaction i.e. colour development on treatment with pyridine and sodium hydroxide and discharging the colour with acetic acid and followed by addition of p-amino acetophenone reagent. The purple red colour formed has an absorption maximum at 520 nm. Beer's law is obeyed in the range of 1.0-10 μg (0.1 to 1.0 ppm) of chloroform per 10 mL of solution. The method is found to be free from interference of various copollutants. The sensitivity of the conventional Fujiwara procedure is increased after this modification. The method has been successfully applied for the determination of chloroform in various environmental and biological samples.

  • Modified Fujiwara Reaction for the determination of trichloroacetic acid
    Microchemical Journal, 1991
    Co-Authors: Madhusri Bhattacharjee, Lata Cherian, V. K. Gupta
    Abstract:

    Abstract A new sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) at the ppm level is described. The method involves the modification of the Fujiwara Reaction, i.e., discharging the color with acetic acid followed by the addition of sulfanilic-formic acid reagent which results in the formation of an orange-yellow-colored polymethine dye having an absorption maximum at 505 nm. The sensitivity after this modification is found to be about five times more than that of the conventional Fujiwara procedure. Beer's law is obeyed in the range of 10–100 μg (1–10 ppm) of trichloroacetic acid per 10 ml of solution. The method is found to be free from the interference of various organic compounds including carbon tetrachloride, benzene, and chloroform under the conditions employed. The method has been successfully applied for the determination of trichloroacetic acid in air, serum, and urine samples.
