The method is based on the reduction of Cu(II)-ligand complexes to chromophoric Cu(I)-ligand complexes with the analyte. The studied ligands were neocuproine (NCN), bicinchoninic acid (BCA) and bathocuproine disulfonic acid (BCS). The absorbance of the Cu(I)-ligand complex was measured at 458, 562 and 483 nm for the reactions of NACET with NCN, BCA and BCS, respectively.

Experimental conditions were optimized by a univariate method, yielding linear calibration curves in a concentration range from 2.0 × 10<sup>−6</sup> mol L<sup>−1</sup> to 2.0 × 10<sup>−4</sup> mol L<sup>−1</sup> using NCN; 2.0 × 10<sup>−6</sup> mol L<sup>−1</sup> to 1.0 × 10<sup>−4</sup> mol L<sup>−1</sup> using BCA and 6.0 × 10<sup>−7</sup> mol L<sup>−1</sup> to 1.2 × 10<sup>−4</sup> mol L<sup>−1</sup> using BCS. The achieved analytical frequency was 90 h<sup>−1</sup> for all three ligands. The method was successfully employed for NACET determination in pharmaceutical preparations, indicating that this FIA method fulfilled all the essential demands for the determination of NACET in quality control laboratories, as it combined low instrument and reagent costs with a high sampling rate.Lea Kukoc-ModunTomislav KraljevićDimitrios TsikasNjegomir RadićDarko ModunMDPI AGarticle<i>N</i>-acetyl-<span style="font-variant: small-caps">l</span>-cysteine ethyl esterneocuproinebicinchoninic acidbathocuproine disulfonic acidflow injection analysisspectrophotometric determinationOrganic chemistryQD241-441ENMolecules, Vol 26, Iss 6826, p 6826 (2021)
