Chemical Structure

Cefadroxil Impurity 41 CAS 68641-64-5 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Cefadroxil Impurity 41 (C10H13ClN2O4S) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Cefadroxil Impurity 41 (CAS 68641-64-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H13ClN2O4S and a molecular weight of 292.74 g/mol.

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), Cefadroxil Impurity 41 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.
