Abstract
Acridine dissolved in the mixed solvent, ketone-acetic acid was determined by titrating with chlorosulphonic acid dissolved in the same solvent. The end-points were located by potentiometric, visual and photometric methods. The first method gave results with an error less than 1 per cent. and in the other two methods, the errors are less than 2 per cent in the estimation of semi-micro quantities of acridine.
