To 35 mL of water R maintained at 60-65 \u00b0C, add 0.2 mL of methyl red mixed solution R. Neutralise to a grey colour with either 0.01 M sodium hydroxide or 0.01 M hydrochloric acid. Add 0.4 g of the substance to be examined and stir until completely dissolved. The solution is grey or green. Not more than 0.2 mL of 0.01 M hydrochloric acid is required to change the colour of the solution to reddish-violet.<\/p>\n

Detection: Spectrophotometer at 235 nm.<\/p>\n

Injection: 20 \u03bcL of test solution (a) and reference solutions (a) and (b).<\/p>\n

Identification of impurities: Use the chromatogram supplied with proguanil for system suitability CRS and the chromatogram obtained with reference solution (a) to identify the peak due to impurity G.<\/p>\n

Relative retention: With reference to proguanil (retention time = about 16 min): impurity G = about 1.05.<\/p>\n

System suitability Reference solution (a):<\/p>\n

\u2014 peak-to-valley ratio: minimum 5.0, where Hp<\/sub> = height above the baseline of the peak due to impurity G and Hv<\/sub> = height above the baseline of the lowest point of the curve separating this peak from the peak due to proguanil.<\/p>\n

Calculation of percentage contents:<\/p>\n

\u2014 for each impurity, use the concentration of proguanil hydrochloride in reference solution (b).<\/p>\n

Limits:<\/p>\n

\u2014 unspecified impurities: for each impurity, maximum 0.10 per cent;<\/p>\n

\u2014 signal-to-noise ratio: minimum 10 for the peak due to impurity B.<\/p>\n

Limit:<\/p>\n

Sulfated ash (2.4.14)<\/h3>\n

Maximum 0.1 per cent, determined on 1.0 g.<\/p>\n

ASSAY<\/h2>\n

Suspend 0.100 g in 20 mL of anhydrous acetic acid R, shake and heat at 50 \u00b0C for 5 min. Cool to room temperature and add 40 mL of acetic anhydride R. Titrate with 0.1 M perchloric acid, determining the end-point potentiometrically (2.2.20).<\/p>\n

1 mL of 0.1 M perchloric acid is equivalent to 14.51 mg of C11<\/sub>H17<\/sub>Cl2<\/sub>N5<\/sub>.<\/p>\n
