Chemical Structure

Gefitinib Impurity 57 CAS 861453-11-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Gefitinib Impurity 57 (CAS 861453-11-4), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C15H21NO4, MW 279.33 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Gefitinib Impurity 57 is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 279.33 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
