Determinatiom of the Rydrolysis of Quinolinium-I-Methyliocide-6-Carboxt-Methyl Ester by Glc

A CLC method for the determination of the hydrolysis of quiolinlues I-methyliodide-6-carboxy-mathylester is dascribed. GLC is parforsud on porous polymer composed of ethylvinylbenzena crose-linked with divinyl-bensen (Polapak-Q). The retention times of methyl alcohol and the internal standare (tertiary butanol) are 2.8 and 6.3 min., respectively. The- apparent pseudo-first order rate constants as a function of taparature (37.C and 50°C) in the presence of 6N HCl were calculated and found to be 2.6 × 10^-2 min^-1 and 2.7 × 10^-2 win-1 respactively.
