Chemical Structure

Gefitinib Impurity 7 CAS 184475-71-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 319.72 g/mol gives Gefitinib Impurity 7 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Gefitinib Impurity 7 (CAS 184475-71-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C15H11ClFN3O2 and a molecular weight of 319.72 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C15H11ClFN3O2, Gefitinib Impurity 7 contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 319.72 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.

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.

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.
