Chemical Structure

Ganciclovir EP Impurity I CAS 86357-20-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ganciclovir EP Impurity I is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ganciclovir EP Impurity I (CAS 86357-20-2), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C15H21N5O6, MW 367.36 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Ganciclovir EP Impurity I (C15H21N5O6) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ganciclovir EP Impurity I 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.
