Chemical Structure

Gefitinib Impurity 74 CAS CATO-C4X-111774 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 252.26 g/mol gives Gefitinib Impurity 74 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Gefitinib Impurity 74 (CAS CATO-C4X-111774) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C13H16O5 and a molecular weight of 252.26 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Gefitinib Impurity 74 (C13H16O5) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Gefitinib Impurity 74 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.
