Chemical Structure

Levofloxacin Impurity 35 CAS 1012310-27-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Levofloxacin Impurity 35 (CAS 1012310-27-8), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C15H12F2N2O6, MW 354.26 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Levofloxacin Impurity 35 (C15H12F2N2O6) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 354.26 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Levofloxacin Impurity 35 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
