Chemical Structure

Abacavir Impurity 7 CAS 120503-69-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Abacavir Impurity 7 is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Abacavir Impurity 7 (CAS 120503-69-7), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C8H10N6, MW 190.21 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Abacavir Impurity 7 (C8H10N6) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
