  • National Physical Laboratory, Hillside Road, New Delhi-110 012 Manuscript received 31 March 1988, revised 27 March 1989. accepted 6 July 1989 WE report here a spectrophotometric method for the determination of nitrite/nitrogen dioxide by azo dye formation. Acidified p-rosaniline hydrochloride diazotised with nitrite/nitrogen dioxide and coupled with N-1-naphthylethylenediamine dihydrochloride yields a red-violet dye which absorbs at 560 nm. Taking advantage of this reaction a sensitive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of nitrite/ nitrogen dioxide.
