Chemical Structure

Erlotinib Impurity 46 CAS CATO-C4X-106946 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Erlotinib Impurity 46 (C20H25N3O4) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 369.42 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Erlotinib Impurity 46 (CAS CATO-C4X-106946) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C20H25N3O4 and a molecular weight of 369.42 g/mol.

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.
