Spectrophotometric determination of gliclazide in pharmaceuticals and biological fluids through ternary complex formation with eosin and palladium (II).
A simple and sensitive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of gliclazide (GLZ) in pharmaceutical formulations and biological fluids. The proposed method is based upon the formation of a ternary complex between palladium (II), eosin and GLZ in the presence of methyl cellulose as a surfactant and acetate buffer of pH 4.5. The ternary complex showed an absorption maximum at 550 nm. The solution of ternary complex obeyed Beer's law over the concentration range of 0.5-4 microg ml(-1) with minimum detectability (S/N = 2) of 0.05 microg ml(-1) (1.545 x 10(-7) M). The different experimental parameters affecting the development and stability of the color were carefully studied and optimized. The proposed method was successfully applied to the analysis of commercial tablets. The results obtained were in good agreement with those obtained using the official or reference spectrophotometric method. The proposed method was further applied to spiked human urine and plasma, the percentage recoveries were 97.84 +/- 0.72 and 97.43 +/- 0.83, respectively, (n = 4). A proposal of the reaction pathway was presented.

Spectrophotometric methods for determination of enalapril and timolol in bulk and in drug formulations.
Two simple and accurate spectrophotometric methods for determination of timolol and enalapril maleate are described. The first method is based on chelate formation with palladium(II) chloride in buffered medium. The second method is based on the formation of the colored complex between palladium(II), eosin, and the two cited drugs using methylcellulose as surfactant to increase the solubility and intensity of the formed complexes. Under optimum conditions the complexes showed maximum absorption at 369.4 nm and 362.8 nm for timolol and enalapril maleate, respectively, in the first method and 552.2 and 550.6 nm for the second method. Apparent molar absorptivities were 1.8 x 10(3) and 1.3 x 10(3) and Sandell's sensitivities were 5.9 x 10(-4) and 2.7 x 10(-4) for timolol and enalapril maleate in the first method; in the second method molar absorptivities were 2.8 x 10(4) and 1.1 x 10(4) while Sandell's constants were 9.1 x 10(-3) and 2.3 x 10(-3) for timolol and enalapril maleate. The solutions of the complexes obeyed Beer's law in the concentration ranges 20-200 micro g mL(-1) and 50-300 micro g mL(-1) for timolol and enalapril maleate, respectively. In the second method, because the reaction was more sensitive the ranges were reduced to 1.6-16 micro g mL(-1) for timolol 8-56 micro g mL(-1) for enalapril maleate. The proposed methods were applied to the determination of the two drugs in their pharmaceutical formulation.
