Chemical Structure

Afatinib Impurity 64 CAS CATO-C4X-100664 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 211.15 g/mol gives Afatinib Impurity 64 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Afatinib Impurity 64 (CAS CATO-C4X-100664) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6FN3O3 and a molecular weight of 211.15 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Afatinib Impurity 64 is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 211.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures Afatinib Impurity 64 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
