- Description: A series of amine complexes has been prepared by reaction of zinc chloride and mercuric chloride with primary aromatic amines. A detailed assignment of the bands in the infra-red spectra of the complexes in the range 4000-625 cm [superscript]-1 is presented. The symmetric and asymmetric N-H stretching frequencies follow the relationship v(sym) = 345.5+ 0.876v(asym). The C-N stretching frequencies exhibit a linear relationship with the Hammett α-functions for the m- and p-substituted amines.

- Description: We have examined the infrared spectra of thirty-seven complexes derived from the reaction of zinc chloride, mercuric chloride and cadmium chloride, bromide and iodide with several primary aromatic amines. The object of the study was to ascertain whether the frequency data would shed light on the mechanisms of metal-donor atom bonding and electron shifts within the molecules and, in the case of the cadmium complexes, in order to obtain evidence for the transmission of electronic effects through a cadmium atom.

- Description: A series of novel cadmium complexes has been synthesized from the reaction of cadmium chloride, bromide and iodide with primary aromatic amines. The complexes are either mononuclear or polynuclear according to the nature of the halide and amine employed. A possible mechanism for their formation is proposed. The N - H stretching and bending frequencies are linearly related to the electronegativity of the co-ordinated halogen, indicating that the electron withdrawing capacity of the halogen is transmitted through the cadmium atom.

- Description: Twenty-two base adducts of uranyl o-hydroxyarylcarbonyl complexes [UO2L2B] (L = o-hydroxyarylcarbonyl compound, B = H2O, pyridine, pyridine N-oxide) have been prepared. Pure field substituent parameters are used to derive a quantitative order of the electronic effects of the chelate ring substituents. Values of v(U=O) correlate well with these values. Evidence is cited suggesting almost complete non-aromaticity of the chelate ring, and the transmission of the electronic effects of the chelate ring substituent through the uranium atom in the pyridine and pyridine N-oxide base adducts.

- Description: The structure of the title compound [(C7H4NO8U)(C7H11N2)]2 has been determined by Patterson and Fourier methods from single crystal X-ray diffraction data collected on a four-circle diffractometer. Full-matrix least-squares refinement yielded a final conventional R of 0.041 for 2189 reflections. The complex crystallizes in the space group P with a = 11.004(5), b = 9.981(5), c = 9.928(5) Å, α = 119.6(3), β = 107.7(3), γ = 81.9(3)°, Dm = 2.17, Dc = 2.173g cm−3. The structure is dimeric. The uranium atoms are eight-coordinate and are bridged via centrosymmetrically related carboxylic oxygen atoms. The nitrate group is bidentate and the average U---O (ligand) distance is 2.463 Å. Hydrogen bonding of the type N---HO links two dimethyl-aminopyridine molecules to the dimer.

Statistical analysis showed no significant differences between similar formulations of diflucortolone valerate. Significant differences were noted between diflucortolone valerate and fluocinolone acetonide preparations.

- Description: Six different vehicles for topical use were used to prepare 50% dilutions of Betnovate@ (betamethasone 17-valerate, 0.1 %) cream. Blanching assessment was undertaken immediately after preparing the various dilutions and at 1 and 3 months thereafter. Few statistically significant differences were noted between any of the preparations tested indicating that the rate of release of betamethasone 17-valerate is relatively unaffected by dilution. All preparations were assayed by a stability indicating high pressure liquid chromatographic technique for corticosteroid content. A diminution in the content of betamethasone 17-valerate in the E45 dilution was found 14 months after preparation. All other formulations tested were found to comply with label claim specifications.

- Description: There is increasing interest in measuring pharmacokinetic parameters of phenylpropanolamine (PPA), a sympathomimetic amine used in over-the-counter nasal decongestants and anorectic formulations. A high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) procedure was developed to enable direct ultraviolet detection of PPA, after extraction from serum and urine, without prior derivatization of the drug. This method was used to assay samples obtained from a bioavailability study of BUBtained-releasePPA tablets. The mean serum and urine profiles obtained are presented. The sustained-release tablets were subjected to dissolution testing utilizing the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP XIX) rotating basket method. An internal standard was incorporated into the dissolution fluid to enable direct analysis of the samples by HPLC. A comparison of three different dissolution fluid regimens was carried out to determine if release of the drug was affected by the change in pH of the medium and to select the most convenient method for the final dissolution studies. Some preliminary observations relating to correlations between rate of drug release from the sustained-release dosage form and percent drug absorbed are presented.

- Description: A high-performance liquid chromatographic analysis of phenylpropanolamine in human serum and urine without prior derivatization is presented. Using direct UV detection the method is sufficiently sensitive to detect 25 ng of drug/ml of serum or urine; the coefficients of variation at 25 ng/ml and 500 ng/ml were 5.16 and 2.12, respectively, in serum. The method involves serum and urine extraction at a basic pH with chloroform, a single back-extraction, and chromatography on a reverse-phase column. Serum and urine data following administration of a single 150-mg sustained-release tablet of phenylpropanolamine hydrochloride in 6 healthy volunteers demonstrates the suitability of the analytical method.
