Abstract

The contents of three related substances in fosfluconazole were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The limit of detection (LOD) of the impurity A (2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-1,3-bis (1H-1,2,4-triazole-1-yl)-2-propan-2-ol), the impurity B (2-(2,4-Difluorophenyl) -1-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) -3-(4H-1,2,4- triazol-4-yl) propan-2-yl dihydrogen phosphate) and the impurity C (2-(2-fluorophenyl) -1,3-bis (1H-1,2,4-triazole -1-yl)-2-propyl dihydrogen phosphate) were 3.0, 3.0 and 5.0 μg/mL respectively. Limit of quantification (LOQ) were 10.0, 22.0 and 21.3 μg/mL for A, B and C. The method can be used for the quality control of the related substances in fluconazole injection, tablet and capsule.
