Chemical Structure

Emtricitabine Impurity 29 CAS 20747-49-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Emtricitabine Impurity 29 is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Emtricitabine Impurity 29 (CAS 20747-49-3) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H20O and a molecular weight of 156.27 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C10H20O, Emtricitabine Impurity 29 contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 156.27 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
