The occurrence of Sofosbuvir Impurity 84 is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies Sofosbuvir Impurity 84 (CAS 914912-69-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H19FO6, MW 374.36 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Sofosbuvir Impurity 84 (C20H19FO6) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
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.
