Ceftriaxone Impurity 38 CAS 6938-68-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Ceftriaxone Impurity 38.

Ceftriaxone Impurity 38 (CAS 6938-68-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C2H7N3S and a molecular weight of 105.16 g/mol.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, Ceftriaxone Impurity 38 is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 105.16 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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), Ceftriaxone Impurity 38 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.
