pharmaceutical ingredient using chemical
derivatization and High Performance Liquid
Chromatography with UV detection
Chapter-4 Page 131
4.1. INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the method development and validation of trace
analysis of Piperazine content in pharmaceuticals by High Performance Liquid
Chromatography with UV detection. Review of literature, materials and methods,
development trials, validation results and summary and conclusion were covered.
Piperazine(diethylenediamine) is widely used in medicine as an effective
antihelminthic agent. However, the method recommended in the State
Pharmacopoeia for determining Piperazine in medicinal forms is very cumbersome
and time-consuming, since the procedure is based on precipitation processes.
Therefore, it is important to develop a simple, rapid, and sufficiently precise
technique for Piperazine determination. Diethylenediamine is commonly applied in
pharmacy, both as a native compound known under the common name Piperazine,
and as the starting substance for the synthesis of methyl and hydroxyl derivatives,
used for the production of drugs such as estropin, clozapine, or cinarazine. Thus, it
should be assayed in many cases, during industrial synthesis as an intermediate
product, and as technological impurity of the final products, as well as in the
pharmacological and environmental analyses. Diethylenediamine does not possess
chromophores. It absorbs UV light only at a wavelength of 205 nm, and its specific
absorption coefficient is very low (0.01). Therefore, the determination of
diethylenediamine at a level below 1mg/kg is possible only after its transformation
into a derivative with sufficiently high optical density, or emitting induced light.
Various primary and secondary aliphatic amines are present in considerable
amounts in biological and environmental samples. Their selective removal is
theoretically possible, but time- and labour-consuming. The chromatographic
properties of coupling products of aliphatic diamines with several carbonatoms are
affected, to a great degree, by the substituent, whose molecular weight is several
times higher and which usually possesses unsaturated bonds and an additional
heteroatom. Hydrophobic interactions of derivatives of primary and secondary
Chapter-4 Page 132
amines do not differ significantly. Additionally, in contrast to secondary amines,
derivatives of primary amines may form hydrogen bonds with relevant groups of
stationary phases or solid support. This method has been developed for
pharmaceuticals, which do not contain potential co-eluents. Further more, the
results of Chromatographic separation may also be reproducible. The objective of
the present study was the selection of HPLC adsorbents, enabling good separation of
NBD Cl (4-chloro-7-nitro benzofurazan) -diethylenediamine and potential co-
eluents. The research was carried out for determination of Piperazine (1-10) content
in active pharmaceutical ingredients and intermediates.

4.2. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
A novel method for the determination of Piperazine in pharmaceutical drug
substances was developed using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
with evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD). This method uses the
hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) mode on a cyanopropyl (CN)
Chapter-4 Page 133
bonded stationary phase. Optimization of organic modifier and acid composition in
the mobile phase resulted in robust Chromatography conditions with excellent
resolution, peak shape, and retention time for the Piperazine peak. The method was
further evaluated with respect to linearity, precision, selectivity, limit of detection
(LOD), and reproducibility. Based on the data provided, this HPLC–ELSD method
demonstrated acceptable levels of linearity, precision, LOD, and selectivity for
determination of Piperazine.
Simultaneous determination of N-benzylpiperazine and 1-(3-
trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine in rat plasma by HPLC-fluorescence detection and
its application to monitoring of these drugs. An HPLC-fluorescence detection
method for simultaneous determination of N-benzyl piperazine (BZP) and 1-(3-
trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine (TFMPP) labeled with 4-(4,5-diphenyl-1H
imidazol-2-yl)benzoyl chloride (DIB-Cl) was described. DIB-BZP and -TFMPP were
well separated with in 13min without interference of peaks from plasma
components. The lower detection limits of BZP and TFMPP at a signal-to-noise ratio
of 3 were 0.9 and 4.6ng/mL, respectively. Precisions of the proposed method for
intra- and inter-day assays were less than 4.8 and 9.1% as % RSD (n=5).
Furthermore, the method could be successfully applied to monitor both compounds
in plasma after their sole or co-administration to rats (each dose, 2mg/kg).
Clearance of TFMPP was significantly different under the conditions (P=0.047).

(each dose, 2mg/kg). Clearance of TFMPP was significantly different under the
conditions (P=0.047). Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Owing to the
remarkable difference in the chromatographic, behaviors of both compounds on a
reversed-phase column, their, satisfactory separation from the interfering peaks
within, acceptable analysis time could not be obtained by an isocratic elution. Thus,
a gradient elution was required in all previous methods (Vorce et al., 2008; Elliott
and Smith, 2008). We also used a gradient elution with the combination of 0.1 M
acetate buffer(pH 3.5) : acetonitrile (Mobilephase-A: Mobilephase-B) and a good
separation of DIB labels without interference of peaks from reagent and plasma
components could be achieved. The retention times of DIB-BZP and -TFMPP labels
were 9.1 and 12.3 min, respectively. Total running time including washing and
equilibration steps after eluting of DIB-TFMPP was ca 25 min.
4.3. OBJECTIVE
The main objective of this research work is to develop simple accurate
analytical method for quantification of Piperazine content in pharmaceutical

4.4.4. Method development:
Development trials were performed with all derivatization reagent and
different make HPLC columns but finally the Chromatographic conditions were
optimized with the diethyl amine, NBD Chloride and acetonitrile with simple
isocratic method.
4.4.4.1. Wave length Selection:
The UV spectrums were generated for Piperazine using with Photo diode
array detector (PDA). Diethylenediamine does not possess chromophores. It
absorbs UV light only at a wavelength of 205 nm, and its specific absorption
coefficient is very low (0.01). Therefore, the determination of diethylenediamine at
a level below 1mg/kg is possible only after its transformation into a derivative with
sufficiently high optical density, or emitting induced light. Various primary and
secondary aliphatic amines are present in considerable amounts in biological and
environmental samples. Their selective removal is theoretically possible, but time-
and labour-consuming. The Chromatographic properties of coupling products of
aliphatic diamines with several carbon atoms are affected, to a great degree, by the
substituent, whose molecular weight is several times higher and which usually
possesses unsaturated bonds and an additional heteroatom. Hydrophobic
interactions of derivatives of primary and secondary amines do not differ
significantly. Piperazine is found to have varying absorption maxima over a range of
wavelength after derivatization reagent NBD Cl. But it was found that at about 336
Chapter-4 Page 136
nm, Piperazine is found to have optimum UV absorption. Therefore, 340 nm was
selected for the study and quantification of Piperazine in Ziprasidone key starting
material.

4.4.4.2. Selection of mobile phase and stationary phase:
Chapter-4 Page 137
Piperazine and Ziprasidone key starting material were found that different
functional groups, shows different affinities with mobile phases and stationary
phase. A different column with different selectivity provides good separation for
method development. Two parameters were chosen to get required resolutions and
separations and symmetrical peaks for Piperazine and Ziprasidone key starting
material i.e., Selection of the mobile phase and column.
4.4.4.3. Selection of Mobile phase:
Piperazine was clearly eluted in Ziprasidone key starting material sample
using with different mobile phases. Piperazine is having wide range of polarities
and the separation of Piperazine mainly depends on the column stationary phase.
An isocratic method was mobile phase of buffer is acetonitrile, methanol and
diethylamine was suitable for the separation of Piperazine content in Ziprasidone
key starting material. Mobile phase was degassed and filtered through 0.22µm
millipore filter paper.
4.4.4.4. Selection of stationary phase:
The objective of this work was to evaluate the piperazine content for
accurate quantification .The preliminary trails carried out in reverse phase columns
were not fruitful in the separation of the separation of piperazine from API.
Different chiral stationary phases were employed during the method development
namely Chiralpak IA, Chiralpak IB, Chiralpak IC and Chiral pak AD-H. In Chiralpak IC
column was found to be good separation between Piperazine and API peak. Very
good resolution was achieved on Chiralpak IC column using mobile phase contains
the mixture of acetonitrile: methanol: diethylamine(90:10:0.1 v/v/v).The additions
of methanol and diethylamine to the mobile phase plays an important role on
enhancing the chromatographic efficiency and resolution between the Piperazine
and Ziprasidone key starting material. Separation was achieved with Chiralpak IC,
250 X 4.6mm I.D., 5.0µm column. Different stationary phases were studied for the
separation of Piperazine and Ziprasidone key starting material such as Chiralpak IA,
