The investigation research involves the development of a new spectrophotometric method for determining chlordiazepoxide indirectly in both pure and pharmaceutical forms by either measuring the absorbance or area under the peak. The main reaction is based on acidic hydrolysis of chlordiazepoxide after that converted the resulting compound to its corresponding diazotized form then coupling with 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone to produce a yellow azo dye in a basic medium. The effects of different factors on intensity of resulting azo dye were investigated. In concentration ranges of 0.5 to 15 µg. mL-1 the plots were linear by monitoring the colored product's absorption at 432 nm as well estimating the area under the peak within range of 425-440 nm. Sandell sensitivity were 0.0156 and 0.07142 μg∙cm-2, the determination coefficient were found to be 0.9967and 0.9944, the molar absorptivity were1.4781x104 and 0.3243x104 L.mol-1.cm-1, respectively. The reaction ratio between hydrolysed drug and the reagent was studied and found to be 1:1. Measuring absorbance or area under the peak provide a promising tool for the sensitive and accurate determination of chlordiazepoxide indirectly in its pure form and commercial dosage forms (Tablets).
