Can i use DPD2 tablets to measure the amount of dechlorination during the degradation process of the drug chloroquine with the chemical formula C18H26ClN3 by the UV/sulfite method?
Accepted Answer
DPD2 tablets are used to measure free chlorine in water, not to measure dechlorination during a degradation process. The degradation of chloroquine (C18H26ClN3) by the UV/sulfite method likely involves a different mechanism. You might consider using a spectrophotometer or HPLC to monitor the degradation of chloroquine and quantify the amount of chlorine removed.
