Propylene carbonate (PC) is a non-toxic solvent currently used in various pharmaceutical formulations. Consequently, a simple, cost-effective and most accurate analytical method for the quantification of this optical inert solvent is of major interest. Based on a consecutive three-step reaction 3,5-diacetyl-1,4-dihydro-2,6-lutidine was obtained from PC and used for quantification by either UV and fluorescent detection. Data were compared with results from LC-ESI-MS as a reference method. After using Mandel's test for linearity assessment of the calibration curves, linear fitting was used for LC-ESI-MS and spectrofluorimetry, while a polynomial 3rd order curve fitting was used for spectrophotometry. High intra- and inter-day precision as well as high accuracy were confirmed for all three analytical methods (spectrophotometry, spectrofluorimetry and LC-ESI-MS). The comparison of all three methods was assessed using correlation coefficients and Bland–Altman plots, both showing satisfying results with a high degree of agreement. The new method confirmed its applicability for PC quantification in two formulations, namely a PC-enriched cream and polyester microimplants. This new quantification method for PC is a reliable alternative to highly sophisticated chromatographic methods.
