Chemical Structure

Cefminox Impurity 41 CAS CATO-C4X-192641 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Cefminox Impurity 41 is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Cefminox Impurity 41 (CAS CATO-C4X-192641) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C16H23N7O8S3C2HF3O2 and a molecular weight of 651.60 g/mol.

Cefminox Impurity 41 (C16H23N7O8S3C2HF3O2) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
