High-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) on silica plates, with two successive mobile phases, has been used for analysis of seven amine azo dye isomers prohibited under a German ban. Dichloromethane was used for the first development, to a distance of 4.5 cm. After drying, the second development was performed with toluene–tetrahydrofuran, 10 + 1 (v/v), to a distance of 8.5 cm. Spots were visualized at λ = 254 nm. Eighteen amines have been studied by use of the method. The limit of determination (X) and the correlation coefficient in the range X to 5X are reported for each amine. To increase the sensitivity of detection, the UV spectrum was acquired for each amine and the wavelength of maximum absorbance (λmax) was used to establish the limit of determination. Synthetic mixtures and dye samples have been resolved and quantified.
