Chemical Structure

Empagliflozin Impurity 41 CAS CATO-C4X-106541 chemical structure

Description

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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Empagliflozin Impurity 41 (CAS CATO-C4X-106541, C17H16ClIO2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Based on its molecular formula C17H16ClIO2, Empagliflozin Impurity 41 contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/iodine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 414.67 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
