Benzyl Benzoate BP Ph Eur Manufacturers

Benzyl Benzoate BP Ph Eur Grade Specifications
Ph Eur
C14H12O2 -- 212.2 -- CAS 120-51-4

CHARACTERS
Appearance: Colourless or almost colourless crystals or colourless or almost colourless, oily liquid.
Solubility: Practically insoluble in water, miscible with ethanol (96 per cent), with methylene chloride and with fatty and essential oils.

IDENTIFICATION
First identificationıA.
Second identificationıB, C.
A. Infrared absorption spectrophotometry (2.2.24). ComparisonıPh. Eur. reference spectrum of benzyl benzoate.
B. To 2 g add 25 ml of alcoholic potassium hydroxide solution and boil under a reflux condenser for 2 h. Remove the ethanol on a water-bath, add 50 ml of water and distill. Collect about 25 ml of distillate and use it for identification test C. Acidify the liquid remaining in the distillation flask with dilute hydrochloric acid. A white precipitate is formed that, when washed with water and dried in vacuum melts at 121 °C to 124 °C.
C. To the distillate obtained in identification test B add 2.5 g of potassium permanganate and 5 ml of dilute sodium hydroxide solution. Boil under a reflux condenser for 15 min, cool and filter. Acidify the filtrate with dilute hydrochloric acid. A white precipitate is formed that, when washed with water and dried in vacuum, melts at 121 °C to 124 °C.

TESTS
Acidity: Dissolve 2.0 g in ethanol (96 per cent) R and dilute to 10 ml with the same solvent. Titrate with 0.1 M sodium hydroxide using phenolphthalein solution R as indicator. Not more than 0.2 ml is required to change the colour of the indicator to pink.
Relative density: 1.118 to 1.122.
Refractive index: 1.568 to 1.570.
Freezing point: Minimum 17.0 °C.
Sulphated ash: Maximum 0.1 per cent, determined on 1.0 g.

ASSAY: To 2.000 g add 50.0 ml of 0.5 M alcoholic potassium hydroxide and boil gently under a reflux condenser for 1 h. Titrate the hot solution with 0.5 M hydrochloric acid using 1 ml of phenolphthalein solution as indicator. Carry out a blank determination. 1 ml of 0.5 M alcoholic potassium hydroxide is equivalent to 106.1 mg of C14H12O2.
