Chemical Structure

Delafloxacin Impurity 21 CAS CATO-C4X-263721 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Delafloxacin Impurity 21 (CAS CATO-C4X-263721), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C18H12F4N4O4, MW 424.31 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C18H12F4N4O4, Delafloxacin Impurity 21 contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 424.31 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
