Readily oxidizable substances
In a ground-glass-stoppered conical flask introduce 10 g of the substance ( Sodium propionate.) to be examined.
Add 100 ml of water R and stir to dissolve. Add 25 ml of sodium hypobromite solution and 10 ml of a 200 g/l solution of sodium acetate, stopper the flask and allow to stand for 15 min. Add 10 ml of potassium iodide solution and 20 ml of hydrochloric acid while cooling.
Titrate with 0.2 M sodium thiosulphate, adding 2 ml of starch solution R towards the end of the titration. Carry out a blank titration. The difference between the volumes used in the 2 titrations is not greater than 2.2 ml.
Iron
Maximum 10 ppm.
10 ml of solution S complies with the limit test for iron.
Heavy metals
Maximum 10 ppm.
12 ml of solution S complies with limit test A. Prepare the standard using lead standard solution (1 ppm Pb).
Loss on drying
Maximum 0.5 per cent, determined on 1.000 g by heating in an oven at 105 °C for 3 h.
ASSAY
Dissolve 80.0 mg Sodium propionate in 30 ml of anhydrous acetic acid R. Titrate with 0.1 M perchloric acid, determining the end-point potentiometrically.
1 ml of 0.1 M perchloric acid is equivalent to 9.61 mg of C3H5NaO2.

C3H5NaO2 Formula wt 96.06
INS: 281 CAS: [137-40-6]
DESCRIPTION
Sodium Propionate occurs as white or colorless, transparent crystals or as a granular, crystalline powder. It is hygroscopic in moist air. One gram is soluble in about 1 mL of water at 25°, in about 0.65 mL of boiling water, and in about 24 mL of alcohol. The pH of a 1:10 aqueous solution is between 8.0 and 10.5.
Function Preservative; mold inhibitor.
REQUIREMENTS
Identification
A. A 1:20 aqueous solution gives positive tests for Sodium,
B. Upon ignition, a sample yields an alkaline residue that effervesces with acids.
C. Warm a small sample with sulfuric acid. Propionic acid, recognized by its odor, evolves.
Assay Not less than 99.0% and not more than 100.5% of C3H5NaO2 after drying.
Alkalinity (as Na2CO3) Passes test (about 0.15%).
Iron Not more than 0.003%.
Lead Not more than 2 mg/kg.
Water Not more than 1%.

Sodium Propionate, dried at 105 for 2 hours, contains not less than 99.0 percent and not more than 100.5 percent of C3H5NaO2.
Identification—
A: Infrared Absorption 197K , on un-dried specimen.
B: A solution (1 in 20) responds to the tests for Sodium..
Alkalinity— Dissolve 2.0 g in 20 mL of water, and add phenolphthalein TS: if a pink color is produced, it is discharged by 0.60 mL of 0.10 N sulfuric acid.
Water, Method I 921 : not more than 1.0%.
Heavy metals, Method I 231 — Dissolve 2 g in 1 mL of 1 N acetic acid and sufficient water to make 25 mL: the limit is 0.001%.
Organic volatile impurities, Method I 467 : meets the requirements.
(Official until July 1, 2007)
Assay— Dissolve about 200 mg of Sodium Propionate, previously dried at 105 for 2 hours and accurately weighed, in 50 mL of glacial acetic acid. Add 1 drop of crystal violet TS, and titrate with 0.1 N perchloric acid VS to a green endpoint. Perform a blank determination, and make any necessary correction. Each mL of 0.1 N perchloric acid is equivalent to 9.606 mg of C3H5NaO2.
