water content in substances, utilizing the quantitative reaction of water with iodine
and sulfur dioxide in the presence of a lower alcohol such as methanol and an organic
base such as pyridine, as shown in the following formulae:
H2O+I2+SO2 + 3 C5H5N → 2(C5H5N+H)I- + C5H5N・SO3
C5H5N・SO3 + CH3OH → (C5H5N+H)O-SO2・OCH3.
