RESUMO
A quantitative spectrophotometric method using Pd(II) chloride as analytical reagent for the determination of polythiazide in pharmaceutical preparations is described in this study. It has been found that polythiazide reacts with Pd(II) chloride in the pH range 3.6-5.8, forming a red, water-soluble (1:1) complex with maximum absorbance at 527 nm. At the optimum pH of 4.8 and an ionic strength mu = 0.1 M, the conditional stability constant of the complex is found to be log K' = 4.77. The molar absorptivity at 527 nm is 3.2 x 10(3) l mol-1 cm-1. Good agreement with Beer's law was found for polythiazide concentrations up to 2.2 mmol l-1. The nominal percent recovery of polythiazide was 99.5% (n = 20). The simplicity, selectivity and sensitivity of the method described is suitable for rapid and accurate determinations of polythiazide in tablets.

A high-pressure liquid chromatographic method was developed for the quantitative determination of polythiazide in pharmaceutical tablet formulations after extraction of the powdered tablets with a water-acetonitrile solvent. Analysis is a accomplished by comparison of peak areas after chromatography.

A method is presented for the quantitative analysis of polythiazide tablets by high-pressure liquid chromatography. The powdered tablets are extracted with methanol, containing quinoline as the internal standard, and assayed by comparison of peak heights after liquid chromatography. The chromatographic conditions employed may be adapted for the determination of many other thiazide and nonthiazide diuretics.
