Chemical Structure

Erlotinib impurity 140 CAS 2055840-41-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Erlotinib impurity 140 is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Erlotinib impurity 140 (CAS 2055840-41-8), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H22BrN3O4HCl, MW 484.77 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Erlotinib impurity 140 (C20H22BrN3O4HCl) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures Erlotinib impurity 140 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
