The formation of complexes of paracetamol and Zn (II) was studied in aqueous media at pH 7.2±0.1 by polarography and spectroscopy. The polarogram indicated formation of complexes between paracetamol and Zn (II). Paracetamol produces a well-defined direct current polarogram and differential pulse polarogram in 1M Britton Robinson buffer (supporting electrolyte) at pH 7.2±0.1. The stoichiometry of the Zn (II)-Paracetamol complex is 1:1. Analgesic studies on the drug and its metal complex have been performed in albino mice. Revealing the complex to be more potent in analgesic activity compared to the parent drug.
