Chemical Structure

Clindamycin Impurity 69 CAS 198080-64-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Clindamycin Impurity 69 is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Clindamycin Impurity 69 (CAS 198080-64-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C18H32N2O5S and a molecular weight of 388.52 g/mol.

Clindamycin Impurity 69 (C18H32N2O5S) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Clindamycin Impurity 69 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.
