Chemical Structure

Ciprofloxacin Impurity 40 CAS CATO-C4X-136240 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Ciprofloxacin Impurity 40.

Ciprofloxacin Impurity 40 (CAS CATO-C4X-136240) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C21H26FN5O2C2HF3O2 and a molecular weight of 513.49 g/mol.

Structurally, Ciprofloxacin Impurity 40 (C21H26FN5O2C2HF3O2) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 513.49 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures Ciprofloxacin Impurity 40 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
