Chemical Structure

(R)-Grepafloxacin CAS 146761-68-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 359.39 g/mol gives (R)-Grepafloxacin distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

(R)-Grepafloxacin (CAS 146761-68-4), molecular formula C19H22FN3O3 and molecular weight 359.39 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, (R)-Grepafloxacin is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 359.39 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.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures (R)-Grepafloxacin under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
