Alkalimetric determination of hydrophobic pharmaceuticals using stabilized o/w emulsions

Abstract

AbstractProtolytic properties of (+)-(S)-2-(6-methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)propanoic acid (naproxen), 2-(3-benzoylphenyl)propionic acid (ketoprofen), 4-chloro-N-(2-furylmethyl)-5-sulfamoylanthranilic acid (furosemide), and N-(2,3-dimethylphenyl)anthranilic acid (mefenamic acid) in “oil-in-water” emulsions stabilized by surfactants were studied. The procedures for alkalimetric determination of naproxen, ketoprofen, furosemide, and mefenamic acid in emulsion media with indication of the equivalence point pH-metrically and with the use of indicators were proposed.
