Abstract

Background: To assess the concentration of sofosbuvir (CAS-1190307-88-0) in pharmaceutical formulations as well as in its pure form, a unique green analytical chemistry approach was developed. ATR-FTIR technique was used to quantitatively evaluate sofosbuvir, a multipurpose antiviral drug, in both tablet and bulk forms. Objective: Sofosbuvir in pharmaceutical goods may be quickly detected by the development and confirmation of an accurate, sensitive, and non-invasive attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy approach. Methods: Sofosbuvir is analysed using a method that looks for the distinctive skeletal band for C-O-C stretching in the 1170–1000 cm–1 spectral region. These procedures, which have linear ranges for SBR of 1.0 to 7.0 mg g-1, were fully verified in compliance with ICH recommendations. Results: The correlation value was 0.9993, and the linearity ranged from 1.0 to 7.0 milligrammes. The results indicated that the limits of quantification (LOQ) and detection (LOD) were 0.142 ± 0.09 mg and 0.079 ± 0.02 mg, respectively. Conclusions: Green chemistry guided the development of the analytical approach, and it was shown that the outcomes were exactly in line with destructive methods. Highlights: It was shown that the results produced were in perfect accord with destructive methods, and the analytical strategy was designed in light of green chemistry.
