Chemical Structure

Hydroxychloroquine Impurity 10 CAS 86-99-7 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Hydroxychloroquine Impurity 10 (C9H6ClNO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 179.60 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Hydroxychloroquine Impurity 10 (CAS 86-99-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C9H6ClNO and a molecular weight of 179.60 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), Hydroxychloroquine Impurity 10 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.
