Chemical Structure

Lopinavir EP Impurity Q CAS 667904-94-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Lopinavir EP Impurity Q is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Lopinavir EP Impurity Q (CAS 667904-94-1, C38H44N2O5) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Structurally, Lopinavir EP Impurity Q (C38H44N2O5) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 18.0, corresponding to approximately 18 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 608.77 g/mol, it falls into the high-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
