Edition: BP 2025 (Ph. Eur. 11.6 update)<\/p>\n

Action and use<\/strong><\/p>\n

Used topically in treatment of fungal infections.<\/p>\n

DEFINITION<\/h2>\n

Zinc di(undec-10-enoate).<\/p>\n

Content<\/strong><\/p>\n

98.0 per cent to 102.0 per cent (dried substance).<\/p>\n

CHARACTERS<\/h2>\n

Appearance<\/h3>\n

White or almost white, fine powder.<\/p>\n

Solubility<\/h3>\n

Practically insoluble in water and in ethanol (96 per cent).<\/p>\n

mp<\/h3>\n

116 \u00b0C to 121 \u00b0C, it may leave a slight solid residue.<\/p>\n

IDENTIFICATION<\/h2>\n

A. To 2.5 g add 10 mL of water R and 10 mL of dilute sulfuric acid R. Shake with 2 quantities, each of 10 mL, of ether R. Reserve the aqueous layer for identification test C. Wash the combined ether layers with water R and evaporate to dryness. To the residue add 2 mL of freshly distilled aniline R and boil under a reflux condenser for 10 min. Allow to cool and add 30 mL of ether R. Shake with 3 quantities, each of 20 mL, of dilute hydrochloric acid R and then with 20 mL of water R. Evaporate the organic layer to dryness on a water-bath. The residue, after recrystallisation twice from ethanol\u00a0(70 per cent V\/V) R and drying in vacuo for 3 h, melts (2.2.14) at 66 \u00b0C to 68 \u00b0C.<\/p>\n

B. Dissolve 0.1 g in a mixture of 2 mL of dilute sulfuric acid R and 5 mL of glacial acetic acid R. Add dropwise 0.25 mL of potassium permanganate solution R. The colour of the potassium permanganate solution is discharged.<\/p>\n

C. A mixture of 1 mL of the aqueous layer obtained in identification test A and 4 mL of water R gives the reaction of zinc (2.3.1).<\/p>\n

TESTS<\/h2>\n

Alkalinity<\/h3>\n

Mix 1.0 g with 5 mL of ethanol (96 per cent) R and 0.5 mL of phenol red solution R. Add 50 mL of carbon dioxide-free water R and examine immediately. No reddish colour appears.<\/p>\n

Alkali and alkaline-earth metals<\/h3>\n

Maximum 2.0 per cent.<\/p>\n

To 1.0 g add 25 mL of water R and 5 mL of hydrochloric acid R and heat to boiling. Filter whilst hot. Wash the filter and the residue with 25 mL of hot water R. Combine the filtrate and washings and add concentrated ammonia R until alkaline. Add 7.5 mL of thioacetamide solution R and heat on a water-bath for 30 min. Filter and wash the precipitate with 2 quantities, each of 10 mL, of water R. Combine the filtrate and washings, evaporate to dryness on a water-bath and ignite. The residue weighs a maximum of 20 mg.<\/p>\n

Sulfates (2.4.13)<\/h3>\n

Maximum 500 ppm.<\/p>\n

To 0.1 g add a mixture of 2 mL of dilute hydrochloric acid R and 10 mL of distilled water R and heat to boiling. Cool, filter and dilute to 15 mL with distilled water R. Prepare the standard using 5 mL of sulfate standard solution (10 ppm SO4) R and 10 mL of distilled water R.<\/p>\n

Loss on drying (2.2.32)<\/h3>\n

Maximum 1.5 per cent, determined on 0.500 g by drying in an oven at 105 \u00b0C.<\/p>\n

Degree of unsaturation<\/h3>\n

Dissolve 0.100 g in a mixture of 5 mL of dilute hydrochloric acid R and 30 mL of glacial acetic acid R. Using 0.05 mL indigo carmine solution R1, added towards the end of the titration as indicator. Titrate with 0.0167 M bromide-bromate until the colour changes from blue to yellow. 9.1 mL to 9.4 mL of 0.0167 M bromide-bromate is required. Carry out a blank titration.<\/p>\n

ASSAY<\/h2>\n

To 0.350 g add 25 mL of dilute acetic acid R and heat to boiling. Carry out the complexometric titration of zinc (2.5.11). 1 mL of 0.1 M sodium edetate is equivalent to 43.19 mg of C22<\/sub>H38<\/sub>O4<\/sub>Zn.<\/p>\n
