Chemical Structure

Gemcitabine Impurity 36 CAS 166376-97-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Gemcitabine Impurity 36.

Gemcitabine Impurity 36 (CAS 166376-97-2) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H16F2O5 and a molecular weight of 254.23 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C10H16F2O5, Gemcitabine Impurity 36 contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 254.23 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
