ABSTRACT:
In the present study, hydrotropic solubilization technique has been used to solubilize the poorly water soluble anti-diuretic drugs such as theophylline for its spectrophotometric analysis. Sodium salicylate and resorcinol solutions of strength 7.5 M and 5.5 M respectively, have been used as a hydrotropic agent. Compared to the solubility in distilled water, a twofold increase in the aqueous solubility of theophylline with respect to sodium salicylate (7.5 M) and 1.3 times enhancement in the solubility of theophylline with regard to resorcinol (5.5 M) have been observed. The interference of the hydrotropic agent in the analysis was found to be nil. Also, the hydrotrope is economical and free from pollution. The proposed method is new, simple, correct and reproducible. Statistical data proved the accuracy, reproducibility, and precision of the proposed method.
