General description
5-Methoxy-2-methyl-3-indoleacetic acid is hydrolysis product of indomethacin.
Application
5-Methoxy-2-methyl-3-indoleacetic acid was used for quantitative determination of indomethacin and its major impurities in suppository and capsule formulations by HPLC. 5-Methoxy-2-methyl-3-indoleacetic acid was used in a study to develop fast, sensitive and simultaneous determination of metabolites of serotonin using liquid chromatography with mass spectrometric detection.

A densitometric method was developed for the identification and determination of indomethacin and its degradation products, 4-chlorobenzoic acid and 5-methoxy-2-methyl-3-indoleacetic acid, in pharmaceuticals. To separate these compounds, silica gel-coated thin-layer chromatography plates and the following mobile phase were used: 2-propanol-25%

Indomethacin and its impurities in suppository and capsule formulations were quantitatively determined by HPLC using a reversed-phase, octadecyl column and a mobile phase of methanol-water-acetonitrile-acetic acid (55:35:10:1). Analysis of the suppository formulations provided a mean potency for indomethacin of 103.8%.
