Reaction behavior of 4-(2-quinolylazo)phenol (p-QAP) is established with three noble metals, i.e. palladium(II), osmium(VIII), and gold(III), under various conditions. Palladium(II) forms a 1:1 greenish violet complex at pH 8–10 (absorption maximum at 580 nm), while osmium(VIII) forms a 1:1 violet compex at pH 8–9.5 (absorption maximum at 550 nm) with the ethanolic solution of p-QAP. Color reaction with gold(III) with ethanolic solution of p-QAP is instantaneous, but fades away with time. However, a 4:4:2 mixture of water, ethanol, and cyclohexanol stabilizes this color for 45 min. Thus a 1:1 red gold(III) complex formed at pH 8–9.5 absorbs maximum at 550 nm. The Sandell's sensitivities (ng cm−2) of the color reactions are 2.7, 3.9, and 9.8 with palladium(II), osmium(VIII), and gold(III) respectively. Other physicochemical characteristics of the complexes are established. A number of foreign ions tested for their interferences and use of masking agents wherever necessaty it tabulated. Synthetic solutions identical in composition to some palladium(II) and gold(III) alloys are estimated to ascertain the suitability of the reagent.
