Chemical Structure

Ciprofloxacin impurity 45 CAS 93106-58-2 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C17H18ClN3O3, Ciprofloxacin impurity 45 contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 347.80 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Ciprofloxacin impurity 45 (CAS 93106-58-2) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C17H18ClN3O3 and a molecular weight of 347.80 g/mol.

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.

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.
