The occurrence of Zidovudine Impurity N1 is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a phosphate ester group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Zidovudine Impurity N1 (CAS 365-07-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H15N2O8P and a molecular weight of 322.21 g/mol.
Zidovudine Impurity N1 (C10H15N2O8P) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a phosphate ester group. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).
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.
