Chemical Structure

Hydroxychloroquine EP Impurity E CAS 10500-64-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 264.75 g/mol gives Hydroxychloroquine EP Impurity E distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Hydroxychloroquine EP Impurity E (CAS 10500-64-8) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C14H17ClN2O and a molecular weight of 264.75 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C14H17ClN2O, Hydroxychloroquine EP Impurity E contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 264.75 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
