Abstrakt: A new, simple, and sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of certain tricyclic antidepressants, belonging to the dibenzazepine class of drugs, has been developed. The proposed method is based on the reaction of imipramine hydrochloride (IPH), desipramine hydrochloride (DPH), clomipramine hydrochloride (CPH), trimipramine maleate (TPM) or opipramol (OPP) with iron(III), and subsequent reaction with ferricyanide in an acetic acid medium, to yield a blue product, with maximum absorption at 720–730 nm.
