Chemical Structure

Losartan Impurity 15 CAS 114772-55-3 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Losartan Impurity 15 (CAS 114772-55-3, C22H22ClN3O) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Losartan Impurity 15 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 379.88 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

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.
