· High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Benzoic anhydride .
Benzoic Anhydride is the more active analogue of benzoic acid formed via dehydration. It has the chemical formula C 14 H 10 O 3 . Benzoic anhydride is used as a benzoylating agent in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, intermediates and dyes. It is considered the simplest symmetrical aromatic acid anhydride. You can find detailed UV spectra of Benzoic anhydride and information about its various lambda maxima by visiting the following link.
Benzoic anhydride can be retained and analyzed using the Primesep S2 stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile (MeCN). Detection is performed using UV.
