Abstract
Azintamide was found to be reduced at the dropping mercury electrode over the pH range 1.8–9.4 in Britton Robinson buffers containing 20% methanol. At pH 7.42 a well defined diffusion-controlled cathodic wave was produced. The limiting current versus concentration plot was linear over the range 0.025–1.0 mM and 0.005–1.0 mM in the DCt and DPP modes, respectively, with a lower detection limit of 1 × 10−7 M by the latter technique. A mechanism for the electrode reaction has been proposed. The method has been applied to the determination of azintamide in tablets, and the results obtained were in agreement with those obtained by a reference method.
