Chemical Structure

Afatinib Impurity 10 CAS CATO-C4X-100610 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 471.91 g/mol gives Afatinib Impurity 10 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Afatinib Impurity 10 (CAS CATO-C4X-100610, C23H23ClFN5O3) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Afatinib Impurity 10 (C23H23ClFN5O3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
