Chemical Structure

Sofosbuvir Impurity 85 CAS 1621160-31-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Sofosbuvir Impurity 85 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 Sofosbuvir Impurity 85 (CAS 1621160-31-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H18ClFO5, MW 392.81 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, Sofosbuvir Impurity 85 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 392.81 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.
