ABSTRACT
A stability-indicating liquid chromatographic method has been developed and validated for the determination of Diltiazem Hydrochloride (DTZ) together with its six related substances (Diltiazem sulphoxide, Imp-A, Imp-B, Imp-D, Imp-E, and Imp-F) in a laboratory mixture as well as in a novel tablet formulation developed in-house. Efficient chromatographic separation was achieved on a Hypersil BDS C18 (150 mm×4.6 mm, 5.0 µm) with mobile phase containing 0.2% Triethylamine (TEA) in gradient combination with acetonitrile (ACN) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and the eluent was monitored at 240 nm. In the developed method, the resolution of DTZ from any pair of impurities was found to be greater than 2.0. The test solution and related substances were found to be stable in the diluent for 24 h. The developed method resolved the drug from its known impurities, stated above, and also from additional impurities generated when the formulation was subjected to forced degradation; the mass balance was found close to 99.9%. Regression analyses indicate correlation coefficient value greater than 0.997 for DTZ and its six known impurities. The LOD for DTZ and the known impurities was at a level below 0.02%. The method has shown good, consistent recoveries for DTZ (99.8-101.2%) and also for its six known impurities (97.2-101.3%). The method was found to be accurate, precise, linear, specific, sensitive, rugged, robust, and stability-indicating.
