Chemical Structure

Faropenem Impurity 40 CAS CATO-C4X-128940 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Faropenem Impurity 40 is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Faropenem Impurity 40 (CAS CATO-C4X-128940, C11H15NO3S) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Faropenem Impurity 40 (C11H15NO3S) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, 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. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

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.
