USP Reference standards 11
USP Aminopentamide Sulfate RS
Clarity and color of solution— Dissolve 0.5 g in 10 mL of water: the solution is clear and colorless.
Identification—
B: It meets the requirements of the tests for Sulfate 191.
Melting range 741: between 179 and 186.
pH 791: between 1.2 and 3.0, in a solution (2.5 in 100).
Loss on drying 731 Dry it at 105 for 4 hours: it loses not more than 4.4% of its weight.
Residue on ignition 281: not more than 0.5%.
Assay— Dissolve about 500 mg of Aminopentamide Sulfate, accurately weighed, in 100 mL of dimethylformamide in a suitable container. Add 5 drops of thymol blue TS, and titrate with 0.1 N lithium methoxide VS in toluene to a deep blue endpoint. Perform a blank determination, and make any necessary correction. Each mL of 0.1 N lithium methoxide is equivalent to 19.72 mg of C19H24N2O·H2SO4.
Auxiliary Information— Please check for your question in the FAQs before contacting USP.
