- How would you extract lidocaine from an antiseptic?
- Q: I have performed other extractions (acid base/precipitation/centrifuge) in other experiments, but just out of personal curiosity, how do you think you would you extract lidocaine HCl from a antiseptic solution like this:http://www.cvs.com/CVSApp/catalog/shop_product_detail.jsp?filterBy=&skuId=209921&productId=209921&navAction=push&navCount=6&no_new_crumb=trueI believe both of the active ingredients are dissolved in a mixture of propyl glycol and water, which would make the boiling point relatively high.Anyway, any input would be appreciated and thanks in advance :)
- A: Lidocaine hydrochloride is a salt of a base (Lidocaine) with hydrogen chloride.To extract the Lidocaine from this medicine, you would first have to make the solution alkaline with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution.The Lidocaine is now a free base that is soluble in organic solvents such as diethyl ether. If you now extract your alkaline medicine with diethyl ether, all the organic compounds, including Lidocaine and propyl glycol, will dissolve in the solvent leaving the water soluble chemicals behind. You now have two layers: a water layer and an ether layer. Separate the two layers and discard the water layer.To separate your Lidocaine base from all the other neutral organic compounds, the diethyl ether solution has now to be extracted with aqueous hydrochloric acid. This will selectively remove your Lidocaine base which will form a water soluble Lidocaine hydrochloride. Separate the layers and this time, discard the ether layer. You now have a water solution of pure Lidocaine hydrochloride free of any other rubbish.If you need Lidocaine, follow the first step until you have an ether solution of Lidocaine. As ether boils at about 35°C, you can remove the solvent very easily by evaporation leaving behind pure Lidocaine.NOTE: Diethyl ether is dangerously flammable!http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lidocainehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-liquid_extractionhttp://ull.chemistry.uakron.edu/chemsep/extraction/
