The mechanism of the inclusion was studied and discussed by means of fluorescence spectrum, infra-red spectrograms and (1)HNMR spectroscopy. Results showed that the naphthalene ring of ROH and the hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain of SLS were included into the beta-CD's cavity to form a ROH:SLS:beta-CD ternary inclusion complex with stoichiometry of 1:1:1 at room temperature, which provided effective protection for the excited state of ROH. At lambda(ex)/lambda(em)=273/360nm, the fluorescence intensity was linear over a tolnaftate concentration range of 2.46x10(-9) to 2.10x10(-6)molL(-1). The detection limit and relative standard deviation was 7.50x10(-10)molL(-1) and 1.4%, respectively. The interference of 31 foreign substances was slight. The proposed method had been successfully applied to the determination of tolnaftate in artificial mixed samples with almost quantitative recovery. | | Language | eng | | Pub Type(s) | Journal Article
