Chemical Structure

Lomefloxacin Impurity 22 Trifluoroacetate CAS CATO-C4X-207322 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Lomefloxacin Impurity 22 Trifluoroacetate (CAS CATO-C4X-207322, C17H19ClFN3O3C2HF3O2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

The molecular framework of Lomefloxacin Impurity 22 Trifluoroacetate (C17H19ClFN3O3C2HF3O2) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Lomefloxacin Impurity 22 Trifluoroacetate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
