Iodine trichloride as an analytical reagent for determination of some organic compounds

Abstract:
Procedures are described for the determination of organic compounds with iodine trichloride under Andrews's titration conditions. Samples are directly titrated with iodine trichloride or first reacted with an excess of iodine monochloride, with subsequent titration of the iodine formed. The direct titration is done initially in feebly acid medium, then the acidity is raised (biotin, methionine, cystine and thiomersal). Pre-oxidation with iodine monochloride is used if the organic compound reacts slowly [tryptophan and arsenic(III) compounds] or is determined in bicarbonate medium (hydroxylamine and thiosemicarbazide). The ferrocyanide formed by the reduction of ferricyanide (by thiourea and allylthiourea) can also be titrated. Arsenic(V) compounds are determined after reduction to arsenic(III), and iodine in organic compounds is converted into iodide by alkaline fusion into iodide and the iodide titrated.
