Chemical Structure

Moxifloxacin Impurity 63 CAS 128740-13-6 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Moxifloxacin Impurity 63 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.

CATO supplies Moxifloxacin Impurity 63 (CAS 128740-13-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C14H16N2O2, MW 244.29 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Moxifloxacin Impurity 63 (C14H16N2O2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 244.29 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
