The polarographic determination of chlorpromazine and chlorpromazine sulphoxide
Abstract Cathodic polarography of solutions containing between 0·1 and 5·0 μg/ml of both chlorpromazine and its sulphoxide enables the sulphoxide to be determined directly. Reductive polarography of the solution after bromination gives an additive wave from which the chlorpromazine is determined by subtraction.
