Separation of some antihistamines on impregnated TLC silica plates

Abstract
Different metal salts have been tried as impregnating reagents for developing TLC separation schemes for some antihistamines on silica gel ‘G’ plates, using a new solvent system benzene + dimethyl formamide + acetic acid (30:10:7). Spots were visualized by spraying with a solution of Dragendroff's reagent.
