Chromium function in our bodies is critical without it, the harmone insulin would not work. Most of the people are familiar with insulin as the shot diabetes give themselves in order to control their high blood sugar. But what most of the people don\u2019t realize is that insulin is the \u201cMaster hormone of our metabolism, it is not only controls blood sugar levels and many other aspects of carbohydrate break down and storage but also directs much of the metabolism involving fat, proteins and energy (calories). Because insulin requires chromium to function properly<sup>1<\/sup>. Chromium reduces insulin resistance, this essential trace element could therefore have wide ranging effects on high blood pressure and abnormal blood lipid in addition to lowering blood sugar<sup>2<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Kaats <em>et al.,<\/em><sup>3 <\/sup>suggest that supplementation with chromium picolinate can lead significant improvement in body consumption when a BCI (Body Consumption Index) is used as the outcome criterion that represent a sume of the net gain in non fat mass added to sum of the net looses of body fat. Chromium is a true potentiator of insulin and is known as glucose tolerance factor (GTF) trivalent chromium Cr(III) has been claimed to be a constituent of glucose tolerance factor. Schwartz and Mertz (1959) showed that trivalent chromium (Cr<sup>3+<\/sup>) cured the impaired glucose tolerance observed in rats an a chromium deficient diet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Pandey <em>et al.,<sup>4<\/sup><\/em> studied the Cr(III) complexes with Di-benzyl sulphide ligand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Louise <em>et al<sup>5<\/sup>.,<\/em> synthesized homoleptic trimethyl silylacetylide complex of Cr(III), LiF <em>et al<sup>6<\/sup>., <\/em>Synthesize Cr(III) complex and compare anti-hyperglycemic activity shows enhanced antidiabetic activity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Yang X <em>et al<sup>7<\/sup>.,<\/em> synthesize a new chromium complex-chromium (phenylalanine) improves insulin responsiveness and reduces whole body glucose tolerance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Complexation of sulphonylueas with transition and inner transition metal has been studied in detail by Yoshinaga and Yamamotto<sup>8-9 <\/sup>(1966 a,b), Iqbal <em>et al.,<sup>10 <\/sup><\/em>(1984, 1985, 1986), Dury and Al-Jibori<sup>11<\/sup>(2012) Shahriare and Ghammamy<sup>12<\/sup>(2012)Modhaviya<sup>13<\/sup>(2012),AbdulVudood et al.,<sup>14<\/sup>(2012),Sunilkumar and Sharma<sup>15<\/sup>(2012) and Jacob and Iqbal<sup>16<\/sup>(2010).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">A perusal of available literature shows that systemic study on complexation of chromium(III) with sulphonyl ureas is relatively scanty. The study of chemistry and chemical reaction of coordination compounds helps in estabilishing structure activity relationship. It has been reported that the biological activity of metal complexes is more potent and less toxic as compared to the free ligand Singel<sup>17<\/sup> (1982), Brown<sup>18<\/sup> (1982), Phipps<sup>19<\/sup> (1976), Williams<sup>20<\/sup> (1976), Lippard<sup>21<\/sup> (1983), Meares and Wensel<sup>22<\/sup> (1984). In view of the above and in continuation of our work, it is interesting to have an insight into the synthesis of chromium(III) complexes with Gliclazide, Glibenclamide and Glimeperide and to study various structural aspects of the isolated complexes. here, the synthesis and characterization of chromium(III) complexes with sulphonyl ureas have been described.for following drugs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9470\" src=\"https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch1.jpg\" alt=\"Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch1\" width=\"368\" height=\"117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch1-300x95.jpg 300w, https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch1.jpg 368w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 368px) 100vw, 368px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9471\" src=\"https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch2.jpg\" alt=\"Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch2\" width=\"377\" height=\"143\" srcset=\"https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch2-300x114.jpg 300w, https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch2.jpg 377w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 377px) 100vw, 377px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9472\" src=\"https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch3.jpg\" alt=\"Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch3\" width=\"339\" height=\"123\" srcset=\"https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch3-300x109.jpg 300w, https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch3.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 339px) 100vw, 339px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9469\" src=\"https:\/\/biomedpharmajournal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch.jpg\" alt=\"Vol-6No1_Synt_Moha_sch\" width=\"273\" height=\"179\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Experimental<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Ligand-Metal ratio<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pure gliclazide m.p. 180\u00b0C (Lit.179.5-180.5), 0.005M,pure Glibenclamide m.p. 172.08\u00b0C (Lit.170.5-173.5), 0.005M and Glimeperide m.p. 207.00\u00b0C (Lit. 206.5-208.00), 0.005M, with chromium chloride 0.01M prepared (AnalaR grade) were separately prepared in purified 90% ethanol, Gliclazide, Glibenclamide and Glimeperide (20 ml.) was diluted to 200 ml. each and titrated conductometrically against chromium chloride at 29\u00b11\u00b0 Results were plotted in the form of graph which indicates ligand metal ratio as 2:1 (L<sub>2<\/sub>M).<\/p>\n<p>Formation of 2:1 (L<sub>2<\/sub>M) ratio was also confirmed by Job\u2019s method<sup>15<\/sup> of continuous variation as modified by Turner and Anderson<sup>16<\/sup>, using Dconductance as index property.

All readings are represented in whole number.<\/p>\n<p>Taking fresh groups of animals and using the same procedure, hypoglycemic activity of Glibenclamide and Glimeperide (oral antidiabetics) were also studied and compared with their complexes. In case of Glibenclamide fasting blood sugar was recorded after 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 hrs. The peak time of the effect of these drugs was proved to be about 4 to 6 hrs. and duration of action to be upto 10 to 12 hrs. After the administration of drugs On the days of administration of drugs or its complex the diet was given to the animals after final observation i.e. at 2.0 p.m. to group A animals and 4.0 p.m. to the animals of group B and C (Table 6-8).<\/p>\n<p>As the reported metal complexes of Gliclazide, Glibenclamide and Glimeperide drugs are able to dissociate at stomach pH, therefore its dosages, to be given to subject animals should be such that it should not be dissociate in stomach i.e. at pH 1.2 for this complexes prepared enteric coated to make at the drug bioavailable as it is, i.e. at duodenum and small intestinal pH (5.5 to 6.8 pH)<\/p>\n<p>Drug is coated with a polymer <em>HPMC-5CPS<\/em> (Hydroxy propylmethyl cellulose) which does not permit drug to dissolve in stomach (i.e. pH 1.2) and such polymer dissolves rapidly at dedenal pH (5 above 5.5) thus drug releases at 5.5 pH and is available for absorption. At this pH complex at stable, non-dissociatable and absorbable. Therefore dosage forms for animals study is prepared as enteric coated, polymerized in this dosage forms are not soluble at pH 12. This drug delivery system is adopted for further study<sup>60-67<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>The hypoglycemic effects of Gliclazide, Glibenclamide and Glimeperide the well known sulphonyl ureas, were inverstigated on the blood sugar levels of male albino rats by using Folin Wu method.<sup>68<\/sup> . Analysis of data presented in table 2,3 and 4 would show that all these drugs caused a marked decrease in blood sugar level to the extent of 33.88%, 33.11% and 33.72% while their complexes reduced the blood sugar level to 43.31%, 43.61% and 47.07% respectively.<\/p>\n<p>This blood sugar lowering effect of sulphonyl ureas seems to be related to the stimulation of insulin secretion on the other hand, many studies have strongly indicated the presence of long term or extra pancreatic action of sulphonyl ureas<sup>69<\/sup>. The hypoglycemic activity of sulphonyl ureas may also be attributed to the stimulation of glycolysis and to the inhibition of glycogenesis in the liver by itself or by enhancing insulin action.<\/p>\n<p>Further, on comparing the hypoglycemic effect of complexes of these sulphonyl ureas in relation to time, it becomes evident from tables 2, 3 and 4 that on the whole the maximum fall in blood sugar was observed after 1\u00bd. 6.0 and 5.0 hrs. with the administration of Gliclazide, Glibenclamide and Glimeperide complexes respectively. On comparing the hypoglycemic effect of these complxes with their parent drugs, it was revealed that in the three groups Gliclazide-Cr(III), Glibenclamide-Cr(III) and Glimeperide-Cr(III) treated albino rat had lowest blood sugar level being 42 mg\/100 ml., 32.5 mg\/100 ml. and 45.6 mg\/100 ml. respectively on an average. These facts clearly indicate a better hypoglycemic activity of complexes as compared to their parent drugs which is in agreement with the earlier findings of Iqbal and co-worker<sup>71<\/sup>. This improved hypoglycemic activity may be related to smaller particle size of metal complexes than drugs as on complexation particle size is reduced which may promote the ratio of absorption of complexes in gastro-intestinal tract.<\/p>\n<p>Results of the present work are also in conformity with the hypoglycemic effect of copper-phenformin complex over parent drug phenformin as mentioned by Piccini <em>et al.,<sup>70<\/sup>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>These interesting observations on metal-complexes of oral sulphonylureas used as anti-diabetic agents for lowering blood sugar concentration may likely substantiate the use of these complexes after extensive clinical studies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Barry Mennen. :<em> Dietry Chromium an overview, executive information Bureau Inc.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Reaven G.M., :<em> Role of Insulin Resistance Human disease,Diabetes 37,1595 Dec.(1998)<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Kaats G.R.,Blum K.,Fisher J.A.,and Adelman J.A. :<em> Current Therapeutic Res. <\/em>57(10);747-765,Oct(1996)<\/li>\n<li>Pandey R.N.,Rajnish Kumar Singh and Kalpana:<em> Asian J.of Chem.<\/em>23(6),2739-2741(2011)<\/li>\n<li>Louise A.,Berben and Jeffery.R.,Lang :<em>Inorg.Chem.J. <\/em>44,8459-8468(2005)<\/li>\n<li>Li F,Wu Y,Zou Y.ZhaoT.,Xhang M.,Feng W,.,Yang L:<em> Food Chem.
