Chemical Structure

Levofloxacin Impurity N27 CAS 1036016-10-0 chemical structure

Description

Levofloxacin Impurity N27 (C18H21F2N3O4) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO supplies Levofloxacin Impurity N27 (CAS 1036016-10-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C18H21F2N3O4, MW 381.37 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.

CATO manufactures Levofloxacin Impurity N27 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
