β¦ Synopsis
A mctliocl is clcscribrcl for tlic detcrniinotion of pyrctlirin I in pyrctlirum coiieciitriitcs in light tint1 liriivy niincrnl oils. Tlic nietliod is bnard 111mii tlmt of \Vileoson IIH modified IIY Holiidiry nnd utilises the scpiir;ition of elirysnnt liciiiiiin inonoc~irboxylic acid on11 t lie recluctioii of Ikmigbs' reagent. Jlodificntions of the \'ilcoson-Holnday method concerned with tlic initial renioviil of uncomliiiiccl ncids, the removnl of tlie oil nnd the aelmntion of the nioiiornrbosylic acid Inivc been introd~iccd. Tlic dctcrininntion of the n~onoriirbosylic iirid by tlic reduction of Denigbs' reagent gives rcaiilts for pyrctlirin I slightly in excctm of those given by n modifial Soil iiictliotl invulviiig ~iyiirntion of tlic monocnrboxylic iicitl by atcum distil-Intion. l'yretlirin I1 may LK. detcrniinrd in oil ~olutions mude from ~~etroleiini etlier extrcictn of ~iyrctlirum [lowers by a11 npplicntion of tlic Seil nicthod. Furthcr work in required on the dctermirintion of pyrethrin 11 in oil solutions macle from acetone extracts of the [lowers.
