Chemical Structure

Orbifloxacin EP Impurity C CAS 126457-99-6 chemical structure

Description

Orbifloxacin EP Impurity C (CAS 126457-99-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C19H21F2N3O3 and a molecular weight of 377.39 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C19H21F2N3O3, Orbifloxacin EP Impurity C contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 377.39 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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), Orbifloxacin EP Impurity C 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.
