| Abstract: | The host–guest interaction between sulfobutylether‐β‐cyclodextrin (SBE‐β‐CD) and reserpine (RSP) is described using flow injection‐chemiluminescence (FI‐CL) and site‐directed molecular docking methods. It was found that RSP could inhibit the CL intensity produced by a luminol/SBE‐β‐CD system. The decrease in CL intensity was logarithmic over an RSP concentration range of 0.03 to 700.0 nM, giving a regression equation of ?I = 107.1lgCRES + 186.1 with a detection limit of 10 pM (3σ). The CL assay was successfully applied in the determination of RSP in injection, saliva and urine samples with recoveries in the range 93.5–106.1%. Using the proposed CL model, the binding constant (KCD‐R) and the stoichiometric ratio of SBE‐β‐CD/RSP were calculated to be 7.4 × 106 M‐1 and 1 : 1, respectively. Using molecular docking, it was confirmed that luminol binds to the small cavity of SBE‐β‐CD with a nonpolar interaction, while RSP targeted the larger cavity of SBE‐β‐CD and formed a 1 : 1 complex with hydrogen bonds. The proposed new CL method has the potential to become a powerful tool for revealing the host–guest interaction between CDs and drugs, as well as monitoring drugs with high sensitivity.
