A simple spectrophotometric method for the determination of methyldopa using p-chloranil in the presence of Hydrogen Peroxide

A simple, rapid and sensitive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of methyldopa in pharmaceutical formulations. The method is based on the reaction between tetrachloro-p-benzoquinone (p-chloranil) and methyldopa, accelerated by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), producing a vio...
