Chemical Structure

Hydroxychloroquine Impurity 74 CAS 2411340-32-2 chemical structure

Description

Hydroxychloroquine Impurity 74 (CAS 2411340-32-2) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C27H30Cl2N4O and a molecular weight of 497.46 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C27H30Cl2N4O, Hydroxychloroquine Impurity 74 contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 497.46 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
