Chemical Structure

Alcaftadine Impurity 3 CAS 952649-75-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Alcaftadine Impurity 3 is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Alcaftadine Impurity 3 (CAS 952649-75-1, C19H21N3O2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Alcaftadine Impurity 3 (C19H21N3O2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

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), Alcaftadine Impurity 3 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.
