Abstract

Abstract The invention provides a method of forming a stable chromophore derived from vanylmandelic acid characterised by forming an ethyl acetate extract of a diazo derivative of vanylmandelic acid and adding dimethyl-sulphoxide and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol to said extract. The diazo derivative may be the reaction product of p-nitrobenzenediazonium salt and vanylmandelic acid. The invention also includes a method of determining vanylmandelic acid characterised by forming a stable chromophore by the above method and quantitatively determining said stable chromophore. The method is particularly useful for the determining of urinary vanylmandelic acid.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 33 words
A method of forming a stable chromophore derived from vanylamandelic acid characterised by forming an ethyl acetate extract of a diazo derivative of vanylmandelic acid and adding dimethylsulphoxide and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol to said extract.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 33 words
A method of forming a stable chromophore derived from vanylamandelic acid characterised by forming an ethyl acetate extract of a diazo derivative of vanylmandelic acid and adding dimethylsulphoxide and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol to said extract.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 characterised in that the diazo derivative is the reaction product of p-nitrobenzenediazonium salt and vanylmandelic acid.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 46 words
A method as claimed in claim.1 or 2 charaet- ierised in that from about 0.1 to about 0.9 parts by volume of dimethylsulphoxide and from about 0.01 to about 0.5 parts by volume of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol are added to each 2 parts by volume of said extract.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 32 words
A method as claimed in claim 3 characterised in that from about 0.01. to about 0.1 parts by volume of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol are added to each 2 parts by volume of said extract.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 31 words
A method for the determination of vanylmandelic acid characterised by forming a stable chromophore by the method claimed in any of claims 1 to 4 and quantitatively determining said stable chromophore.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 16 words
