Chemical Structure

Nintedanib Impurity 138 CAS CATO-C4X-1814138 chemical structure

Description

Nintedanib Impurity 138 (CAS CATO-C4X-1814138) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12Cl2O3 and a molecular weight of 251.11 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Nintedanib Impurity 138 (C10H12Cl2O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

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.
