Investigation of the Chemiluminescent Reaction Between Lucigenin and Organic Reductants and Its Application as a Detector for High Pressure Liquid Chromatography

Abstract

dc:description

The reaction of basic lucigenin (N,N'-dimethyl-9,9'-biacridinium dinitrate) with organic reductants was investigated as an analytical tool. Investigation of this reaction was carried out in three distinct steps: (1) stopped flow investigation of the reaction parameters; (2) development of a flow injection system for investigation, specifically the development of a chemiluminescence detector for HPLC, and; (3) application of the chemiluminescence detector to the determination of ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid.
