“…This fact is perspective for the creation of ecologically clean car engines. Because of the high importance of palladium, it is necessary to control its quantities in a wide range of concentrations with sufficient reliability, which is the reason of increased interest in the spectrophotometric determination of Pd 2+ in catalytic, biological, and other materials using thiazolylazo, or triazolylazo reagents (Hovind, 1975;Hallas and Jae-Hong, 1999). Selectivity and stability of the chelates of Pd 2+ with thiazolylazo reagents have attracted much attention (Lemos et al, 2007).…”
