3, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose group content determination

(1) Determination of methoxy content

The determination of methoxy content is based on the decomposition of hydroiodate acid by heating with a test containing methoxy to produce volatile methane iodide (boiling point 42.5 ° C). Methane iodide is distilled with nitrogen in autoreaction solution. The methoxy content can be calculated by titrating 12 with a solution of Na2S2O3. The reaction equation can be expressed as follows.

The device for measuring methoxy content is shown in Figure 7-6.

In 7-6 (a), A is a 50mL round-bottom flask connected with a catheter. The bottleneck is vertically equipped with a straight air condensing tube E, about 25cm in length and 9mm in inner diameter. The upper end of the tube is bent into a glass capillary tube with a downward outlet and a 2mm in inner diameter. Figure 7-6 (b) shows the improved device. 1 is the reaction flask, which is a 50mL round-bottom flask, and the nitrogen pipe is on the left. 2 is the vertical condensing pipe; 3 is the scrubber, containing washing liquid; 4 is the absorption tube. The biggest difference between the device and the pharmacopoeia method is that the two absorbers of the pharmacopoeia method are combined into one, which can reduce the loss of the final absorption solution. In addition, the washing liquid in the scrubber is also different from the pharmacopoeia method, which is distilled water, and the improved device is a mixture of cadmium sulfate solution and sodium thiosulfate solution, which can more easily adsorb the impurities in the distilled gas.

Instrument pipette: 5mL (5), 10mL (1); Burette: 50mL; Iodine measuring bottle: 250mL; Analyze the balance.

Reagent phenol (because it is a solid, so it will be fused before feeding); Carbon dioxide or nitrogen; Hydroiodate acid (45%); Analysis of pure; Potassium acetate solution (100g/L); Bromine: analytically pure; Formic acid: analytically pure; 25% sodium acetate solution (220g/L); KI: analytical purity; Dilute sulfuric acid (1+9); Sodium thiosulfate standard solution (0.1mol/L); Phenolphthalein indicator; 1% ethanol solution; Starch indicator: 0.5% starch in water; Dilute sulfuric acid (1+16.5); 30% chromium trioxide solution; Organic-free water: add 10mL dilute sulfuric acid (1+16.5) to 100mL water, heat to boiling, and add 0.1ml0.02mol /L potassium permanganate titer, boil for 10min, must keep pink; 0.02mol/L sodium hydroxide titration solution: According to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia appendix method, 0.1mol/L sodium hydroxide titration solution was calibrated and accurately diluted to 0.02mol/L with boiled and cooled distilled water.

Add about 10mL of washing solution into the washing tube, add 31mL of newly prepared absorption solution into the absorption tube, install the instrument, weigh about 0.05g (accurate to 0.0001g) of the dried sample that has been dried to constant weight at 105℃ into the reaction flask, and add 5mL hydroiodate. The reaction bottle is quickly connected to the recovery condenser (the grinding mouth is moistened with hydroiodate), and nitrogen is pumped into the tank at the rate of 1~2 bubbles per second. The temperature is controlled slowly so that the steam of the boiling liquid rises to half the height of the condenser. The reaction time depends on the nature of the sample, between 45min and 3h. Remove the absorbent tube and carefully transfer the absorbent solution into a 500mL iodine flask containing 10ml of 25% sodium acetate solution until the total volume reaches about 125mL.

Under constant shaking, slowly add formic acid drop by drop until the yellow disappears. Add a drop of 0.1% methyl red indicator, and the red color does not disappear for 5 minutes. Then add three drops of formic acid. Let it sit for a while, then add 1g of potassium iodide and 5mL of dilute sulfuric acid (1+9). The solution was titrated with 0.1mol/L sodium thiosulfate standard solution, and 3~4 drops of 0.5% starch indicator were added near the end point, and the titration was continued until the blue color disappeared.

In the same situation, a blank experiment was performed.

Calculation of total methoxide content:

Where, V1 represents the volume (mL) of sodium thiosulfate standard solution consumed by titration samples; V2 is the volume of sodium thiosulfate standard solution consumed in blank experiment, mL; C is the concentration of sodium thiosulfate standard solution, mol/L; M refers to the mass of the dried sample, g; 0.00517 is 0.1mol/L sodium thiosulfate per 1ml equivalent to 0.00517g of methoxy.

The total methoxy content represents the total methoxy and the hydroxyproxy value of the methoxy calculation, so the total alkoxy must be corrected by the resulting hydroxyproxy content to obtain the exact methoxy content. The HYDROXYPROPOXY CONTENT SHOULD FIRST BE CORRECTED FOR PROPENE PRODUCED BY THE REACTION OF HI WITH HYDROXYPROPYL WITH A CONSTANT K=0.93 (THE MEAN OF A LARGE NUMBER OF SAMPLES DETERMINED BY THE Morgan METHOD). Therefore:

Corrected methoxy content = total methoxy content – (hydroxypropoxy content ×0.93×31/75)

Where the numbers 31 and 75 are the molar masses of methoxy and hydroxypropoxy groups, respectively.

(2) Determination of hydroxypropoxy content

The hydropropoxy group in the sample reacts with chromium trioxide to produce acetic acid. After being distilled from the autoreaction solution, the content of chromic acid is determined by titration with NaOH solution. Because a small amount of chromic acid will be brought out in the distillation process, the NaOH solution will also be consumed, so the content of this chromic acid should be further determined by iodimetry and deducted from the calculation. The reaction equation is:

Instruments and reagents A complete set of instruments for the determination of hydroxypropoxy groups; Volumetric bottle: 1L, 500mL; Measuring cylinder: 50mL; Pipette: 10mL; Iodine measuring bottle: 250mL. Basic burette: 10mL; Sodium thiosulfate standard solution (0.1mol/L); Dilute sulfuric acid (1+16.5); Dilute sulfuric acid (1+9); Starch indicator (0.5%).

In the improved device shown in FIG. 7-7 (b), 1 is the reactor, which is a 50mL distillation flask; 2 is the distillation head; 3 is a 50mL glass funnel to control the speed of organic water flow; 4 is nitrogen pipe; 5 is the condensing pipe. The most significant difference between the modified device and the pharmacopoeia method is the addition of a glass funnel to control the rate of water flow, so that the rate of distillation can be easily controlled.

Test methods in the sample of the 105 ℃ drying to constant weight is about 0.1 g (0.0002 g), accurate said in distillation bottle, add 10 ml of 30% chromium trioxide solution, the distillation flask into oil bath cup, oil bath liquid level consistent with chromium trioxide liquid surface, installed equipment, open cooling water, nitrogen, of our factory to control the rate of nitrogen about one bubble per second. Within 30min, the oil bath was heated to 155℃ and maintained at this temperature until the collected solution reached 50mL. The distillation was stopped to remove the oil bath.

Wash the inner wall of the cooler with distilled water, combine the washing water and the distillate in a 500mL iodine bottle, add 2 drops of 1% phenolphthalide indicator, titrate with 0.02mol/L sodium hydroxide solution to the pH value of 6.9~7.1, and write down the total number of sodium hydroxide consumed.

Add 0.5g sodium bicarbonate and 10mL dilute sulfuric acid (1+16.5) to the iodine bottle and let it stand until no carbon dioxide is produced. Then add 1.0g potassium iodide, plug it tightly, shake it well and leave it in the dark for 5min. Then add 1mL 0.5% starch indicator and titrate it with 0.02mol/L sodium thiosulfate to the end point. Write down the volume of sodium thiosulfate consumed.

In another blank experiment, the volume numbers of sodium hydroxide and sodium thiosulfate titrators consumed were recorded respectively.
