Chemical Structure

Hydantoin Impurity 4 CAS 2361-15-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Hydantoin Impurity 4 is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, a sulfone group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Hydantoin Impurity 4 (CAS 2361-15-1, C5H10O5S) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Based on its molecular formula C5H10O5S, Hydantoin Impurity 4 contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, a sulfone group; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 182.19 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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.
