ABSTRACT
In the production of doxofylline, the common occurrence of toxic p-toluene sulfonate generation prompted the development and validation of a method using HPLC with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV). This method is designed for detecting four potential genotoxic impurities (PGIs) present in both doxofylline drug substance and tablets, with a focus on the UV-absorbing group p-toluene sulfonate. The four impurities were methyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (PGI-1), ethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (PGI-2), 2-hydroxyethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (PGI-3), and 2-(4-methylphenyl)sulfonyloxyethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (PGI-4). In this method, chromatographic separation was achieved using a Waters Symmetry C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 µm). The mobile phases consisted of 20% acetonitrile as mobile phase A and pure acetonitrile as mobile phase B, operating in gradient elution mode at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. According to the guidelines of the International Conference on Harmonization, it was determined that this method could quantify four PGIs at 0.0225 µg/mL in samples containing 60 mg/mL. The validated approach demonstrated excellent linearity (R2 > 0.999) across the concentration range of 30%-200% (relative to 0.075 µg/mL doxofylline) for the four PGIs. The accuracy of this method for the four PGIs ranged from 94.8% to 100.4%. The reverse-phase-HPLC-UV analytical method developed in this study is characterized by its speed and precision, making it suitable for the sensitive analysis of benzene sulfonate PGIs in doxofylline drug substances and tablets.
