Three simple, accurate, rapid and sensitive methods developed for the determination of propafenone in bulk
drug and in its tablets by UV Spectroscopy (Method - A), Extractive Spectrophotometric estimation (Method -B)
and Hydrotropic method (Method - C). In Method A propafenone estimated at 301 nm using ethanol as a solvent.The linearity was observed in the concentration range of 20 - 200 g/ml with correlation co efficient of 0.9819. In
Method B extractive spectrophotometric estimation of propafenone using methylene blue and phosphate buffer (PH 8) as an ion pair complexing agent using chloroform as a extractive solvent, the intensity of the resulting bluish
green color of the organic layer was measured at 485 nm. The linearity was observed in the concentration range of
200 - 1000 g/ml with correlation co efficient of 0.9769. In Method C Diphen hydramine citrate solution used as a
hydrotropic agent to dissolve the propafenone which is water insoluble, and it is estimated at 301 nm with the
linearity range and correlation co -efficient of 15 150 g/ml and 0.9985. The result of analysis for all the methodswas validated statistically and by recovery studies.
Key Words : Propafenone, Hydrotropic agent and Extractive Spectrophotometry.
INTRODUCTION
Propafenone is chemically 2'-[2-Hydroxy-3-(propylamino)-propoxy]-3-Phenyl propiophenonehydrochloride, [Fig-1] used as Anti arrhythmic agent1. Propafenone is a Class 1C antiarrhythmic drug with local
anesthetic effects, and a direct stabilizing action on myocardial membranes. The electrophysiological effect ofPropafenone manifests itself in a reduction of upstroke velocity (Phase 0) of the monophasic action potential in
Purkinje fibers, and to a lesser extent in myocardial fibers. Propafenone reduces the fast inward current carried by
sodium ions. Diastolic excitability threshold is increased and effective refractory period is prolonged. Propafenone
reduces spontaneous automaticity and depresses triggered activity. Survey of literature reveals that the drug isdetermined by using GC-MS

methods has reported for the estimation of propafenone in pharmaceutical formulation. The present study describes
simple, sensitive, accurate, rapid and economical spectrophotometric methods A, B and C for the estimation ofpropafenone in bulk drug and its pharmaceutical formulation.

EXPERIMENTAL
ELICO UV Spectrophotometer SL 150 with 1cm matched quartz cells was used for the spectra
measurements.
All the chemicals used were of analytical reagent grade: (i) Ethanol (ii) Chloroform (iii) Diphen
hydramine citrate (iv) All Reagents were prepared by using distilled water.
ASSAY PROCEDURE
METHOD A: Propafenonestock solution was prepared by weighing 100mg of propafenone accurately
and transferring it into a 100 volumetric flask (previously calibrated) and the volume was made up to the mark with
ethanol to get concentration of (1000g/ml) (solution-A). From this aliquots of 0.2ml, 0.4ml, 0.8ml, 1.2ml, 1.6mland 2ml were pipetted out into different 10ml volumetric flasks (previously calibrated) and diluted to 10ml with
ethanol to get concentrations of 20g/ml, 40g/ml, 80g/ml, 120g/ml, 160g/ml and 200g/ml respectively.
Absorbance of resulting solution was measured at 301nm using UV-Visible Spectrophotometer against blank(Ethanol).
Similarly the absorbance of sample solution was measured and amount of Propafenone was determined by
using calibration curve.
METHOD B: Propafenone stock solution was prepared by weighing 100mg of Propafenone,
transferring it to a 100ml volumetric flask and volume was made up to 100ml with ethanol to get a concentration of1000g/ml (Solution-A). From these aliquots of 2ml, 4ml, 6ml, 8ml and 10ml of solution were pipetted out into
different 10ml volumetric flask and diluted to 10ml with ethanol to get a concentration of 200g/ml, 400g/ml,
600g/ml, 800g/ml and 1000g/ml, these are transferred to different separating funnel containing 10ml of
methylene blue, 10ml of chloroform and 1ml of phosphate buffer (PH -8) and shaking for 15 min, the organic layer
has been separated out and the intensity of bluish green color was measured at 485nm against blank.
Similarly the absorbance of sample solution was measured and amount of Propafenone was determined by
using calibration curve.
METHOD C: By using hydrotropic solubilising agent (Diphen hydramine citrate), the drug-propafenone(insoluble in water) is made water soluble due to a complex formation which is completely soluble in water. The
absorbance of resulting solution was measured at 301 nm.
Propafenone stock solution was prepared 250mg of Diphen hydramine citrate was dissolved in 10ml of
distilled water in a 1000ml volumetric flask. Then add 100mg of propafenone to it, and it was heated on a water bath
until a clear solution is formed and volume was made up to 1000ml with distilled water to get a concentration of
1mg/ml (solution A). From this solution an aliquot of 10ml was withdrawn and it was diluted to 100ml withdistilled water to get a concentration of 100g/ml (solution-B).
From Solution-B aliquots of 0.5ml, 1ml, 1.5ml, 2ml, 2.5ml, 3.0ml were pipetted out and diluted to 10ml by
using distilled water to get concentrations of 5g/ml, 10g/ml, 15g/ml, 20g/ml, 25g/ml, 30g/ml respectively.
Absorbance of this solution was measured at 301nm against blank.
Similarly the absorbance of sample solution was measured and amount of Propafenone was determined byusing calibration curve.
ANALYSIS OF FORMULATION
10 tablets of Propafenone (Brand name-Rythmol) of label claim 150mg were weighed. Average weight was
determined. The tablets were finely powdered and equivalent weight equal to 100 mg were calculated based on label
claim and transferred to a 100ml volumetric flask and make up with diphen hydramine citrate solution to get a

correlation obtained from the different concentration and the results were shown in Table 7.
The reproducibility and precision of the methods are very good shown by the low values of % RSD.
Recovery studies were close to 100% that indicates the accuracy and precision of the proposed methods and also
indicates non interference from the formulation excipients. The results of analysis were shown Table 7.
In conclusion the developed methods are simple, accurate, sensitive and economical for the routineestimation of Propafenone in bulk drug and its pharmaceutical formulations.
