Chemical Structure

Delafloxacin Impurity 15 CAS CATO-C4X-263715 chemical structure

Description

Delafloxacin Impurity 15 (CAS CATO-C4X-263715) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C18H13F3N4O4 and a molecular weight of 406.32 g/mol.

Delafloxacin Impurity 15 (C18H13F3N4O4) contains a flavonoid core, an amide 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. 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), Delafloxacin Impurity 15 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.
