Chemical Structure

Ciprofloxacin 7-Chloro-6-Desethylene Impurity CAS 528851-30-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 358.22 g/mol gives Ciprofloxacin 7-Chloro-6-Desethylene Impurity distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Ciprofloxacin 7-Chloro-6-Desethylene Impurity (CAS 528851-30-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C15H16ClN3O3HCl and a molecular weight of 358.22 g/mol.

Ciprofloxacin 7-Chloro-6-Desethylene Impurity (C15H16ClN3O3HCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ciprofloxacin 7-Chloro-6-Desethylene Impurity meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
