A liquid chromatography(LC) method has been developed for the determination of montelukast advanced intermediate (2) and its precursors. Separation was achieved onXterra C-18, 1504.6mm, 5.0 mcolumn using with linear gradient programcomprising of mobile phaseA(0.25%of triethyl amine in water, pH adjusted to 3.0 with trifluro acetic acid) and mobile phase B (acetonitrile). The analysis is carried out with flow rate of 1.0 ml/min and at 240 nm. The method is found to be accurate, linear, precise, rugged and specific. This method can be used for the analysis of montelukast advanced intermediate (2).
