Chemical Structure

Tirofiban Impurity 18 CAS 2250244-26-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Tirofiban Impurity 18 is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Tirofiban Impurity 18 (CAS 2250244-26-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C18H22N2O3 and a molecular weight of 314.38 g/mol.

Tirofiban Impurity 18 (C18H22N2O3) contains a steroid core, an amide 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.

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.
