Toxic effect
Drugs lead to neuropsychiatric and cardiovascular disorders.
They cause allergic complications (skin rash), dyspepsia, swelling of the skin, mucous membranes, bronchospasm at therapeutic doses.
They cause disruption and eventually paralysis of the central nervous system in toxic doses. The clinical picture is characterized by psychomotor disturbances, convulsions, loss of consciousness, decreased blood pressure, bradycardia.
Toxicity of dicain exceeds the toxicity of procaine (lethal dose is 1 g) and procainamide (lethal dose is 1.5 g).
MetabolismMetabolismNovocaine is rapidly hydrolyzed to p-aminobenzoic acid and diethylaminoethanol:

Directional chemical toxicological analysis on p-aminobenzoic acid derivatives
Objects of investigation. Liver, kidney, blood, urine.Isolation - at directional analysis - general methods (Vasilyeva, Stas-Otto), at nondirectional analysis - biological objects (organ tissues) is extracted by water, acidified to pH = 2-3 by hydrochloric acid (salts are soluble in water). From the aqueous phase drugs in the form of bases is extracted with chloroform at pH 11 (alkalinization of the aqueous phase by NaOH). Impurities remain in the aqueous phase.
TLC screening: in general solvent system - chloroform-
dioxane-acetone-25 % ammonia solution (45:47,5:5:2,5),
sorbent - silica gel, they will be in third zone (Rf = 0,63-
0,83).
After elution by methanol-25% ammonia solution (9:1) drugs
are analyzed in specific solvent system: chloroform-ethanol
(20:1), sorbent - aluminum oxide.
Developer: Dragendorff's reagent (appear orange, orange-
brown stains) or identify the reaction of azo dye formation
with β-naphthol (orange stains).
Chemical methods of analysis:1. 1. Precipitation reactionsPrecipitation reactions with reagents of alkaloidal group
precipitation (picric acid, Bushard, Dragendorff, Mayer, Zonnenstein, reagents etc.).
Amorphous or crystalline precipitates with uncharacteristic shapes indicating the presence of heterocyclic nitrogen atom in drugs. Reactions high sensitivity, but nonspecific.
2. 2. Microcrystaloscopic reaction.Microcrystaloscopic reaction.Reactions are high sensitive and specific for certain conditions
(additional purification, temperature):- Dragendorff’s reagent - crystals in thin needles collected in bundles
(procaine) or diamond-shaped plates (procainamide);- With solution of tetrabromoauratic acid - crystals as plates and needles

TLC-screening: in general solvent system: chloroform-
dioxane-acetone-25% ammonia solution (45:47,5:5:2,5),
sorbent - silica gel; developers - concentrated acid (H2SO4,
HNO3, HC1) and solutions of oxidizers HClO4 and NaNO2;
Marqui's or Mandelin's reagents.
The presence of pink and purple stains in the 3rd zone (Rf =
0,63-0,83) indicates the possible presence of phenothiazine
derivatives.
Mixture of methanol-25% ammonia solution (9:1) is used for
elyation drugs and analyzed in specific solvent system:
chloroform-ethanol (20:1) and cyclohexane-acetone (5:1);
sorbent - aluminum oxide.
Chemical methods of analysis:
1. 1. Precipitation reactionsPrecipitation reactions with reagents of alkaloidal group precipitation (picric acid, Bushard, Dragendorff, Mayer, Zonnenstein, reagents etc.).
Amorphous or crystalline precipitates with uncharacteristic shapes indicating the presence of heterocyclic nitrogen atom in drugs. Reactions high sensitivity, but nonspecific.
2. Color reactions2. Color reactions are mainly based on chemical oxidation, dehydration, condensation with aldehydes at usages of concentrated acids H2SO4, HNO3, HCl, HClO4; reagents
Marqui's, Mandelin's, Frohdes's; solutions of salt FeCl3,
NaNO2.
The reaction products are colored in red and purple, blue and red colors. Reactions sensitive, nonspecific.
3. 3. Microcrystaloscopic reaction.Microcrystaloscopic reaction.
Most of phenothiazines form characteristic crystalline precipitation of Reinecke salt, but differentiation of individual drugs of the group on the form of crystals is difficult.
4. Physical-chemical methods of analysis:
1. UV spectra of phenothiazine derivatives and their products of oxidation.
Absorption of phenothiazine in the UV region of the spectrum is characterized by two peaks:
a) max = 250-260 nm, b) max = 300-315 nm.
Sulphoxides of phenothiazines have four maximums in the UV region: max= 230, 265, 285 and 400 nm.
Quantitative analysis
spectroscopic (UV spectrophotometry, photometry, extraction
photometry) and chromatographic (TLC - planimetric and
densitometric methods, gas-liquid and liquid chromatography)
methods.
Extraction photometry is based on chloroform extraction of ion associates phenothiazines with acidic indicator (methyl orange) with subsequent measurement of the optical density of colored organic layer.
The method is sensitive, does not require a high degree of purification from impurities.

Complications: digestive disorders, cardiovascular disease, neuropsychiatric disorders, allergic reactions are possible at the usages of therapeutic doses.
Mild poisoning is characterized by weakness, lethargy, drowsiness, expansion of the pupils, decreased muscle tone.
Medium poisoning is characterized more severe symptoms, and there are skin hyperemia, dry skin, tachycardia. In some cases there is euphoria, hypotonia.
Heavy poisoning is characterized by mental confusion, the appearance of convulsion, hallucinations. Death occurs due to respiratory and circulatory failure - circulatory collapse, respiratory arrest, pulmonary edema.
The lethal dose is 1-2 g for chlordiazepoxide, toxic concentration in the blood - 5-20 mg/L, the deadly - over 50 mg/L.
