Chemical Structure

Flurbiprofen Impurity 159 CAS 179766-28-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 338.40 g/mol gives Flurbiprofen Impurity 159 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Flurbiprofen Impurity 159 (CAS 179766-28-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C24H18O2 and a molecular weight of 338.40 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C24H18O2, Flurbiprofen Impurity 159 contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 338.40 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
