Abstract
A new, specific, precise and very sensitive spectrofluorimetric methodology has been established and approved for determination of Fenoterol hydrobromide (FEN) in its pharmaceutical forms and spiked plasma. The strategy utilized the phenolic nature of FEN and its capacity to undergo Von Pechman synthesis of coumarin. In this study, Fenoterol hydrobromide reacts with ethyl acetoacetate in presence of concentrated sulfuric acid to form an extremely fluorescent coumarin derivative measured at 480 nm (λex: 420 nm). Different reaction variables affecting development and stability of the formed coumarin derivative were precisely examined and enhanced to guarantee greatest sensitivity of the strategy. The recommended procedure was found to obey Beer's law in concentration range of (300−2000) pg mL−1 with quantitation limit 130 pg mL−1, revealing high sensitivity of the suggested method. The proposed procedure was completely examined and approved through the ICH guidelines and was efficiently applied for the determination of the cited drug in spiked plasma and its dosage forms.
