Chemical Structure

Posaconazole impurity 218 CAS CATO-C4X-1208218 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 371.38 g/mol gives Posaconazole impurity 218 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Posaconazole impurity 218 (CAS CATO-C4X-1208218) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C21H19F2NO3 and a molecular weight of 371.38 g/mol.

Posaconazole impurity 218 (C21H19F2NO3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
