The existing study pronounces two newly developed spectrofluorimetric probes for the assay of ambroxol hydrochloride in its authentic and commercial formulations using an aluminum chelating complex and a biogenically mediated and synthesized aluminum oxide nanoparticles (Al2O3NPs) from Lavandula spica flower extract. The first probe is based on the formation of an aluminum charge transfer complex. However, the second probe is based on the effect of the unique optical characteristics of Al2O3NPs in the enhancement of fluorescence detection. The biogenically synthesized Al2O3NPs were confirmed using various spectroscopic and microscopic investigations. The fluorescence detections in the two probes were measured at a λex of 260 and 244 and a λem of 460 and 369 nm for the two suggested probes, respectively. The findings showed that the fluorescence intensity (FI) covered linear concentration ranges of 0.1–200 ng mL−1 and 1.0–100 ng mL−1 with a regression of ˃0.999 for AMH-Al2O3NPs-SDS and AMH-Al(NO3)3-SDS, respectively. The lower detection and quantification limits were evaluated and found to be 0.04 and 0.1 ng mL−1 and 0.7 and 0.1 ng/mL−1 for the abovementioned fluorescence probes, respectively. The two suggested probes were successfully applied for the assay of ambroxol hydrochloride (AMH) with excellent percentage recoveries of 99.65% and 99.85%, respectively. Excipients such as glycerol and benzoic acid used as additives in pharmaceutical preparations, several common cations, and amino acids, as well as sugars, were all found to have no interference with the approach.
