Stability Indicating HPTLC Method of Molnupiravir and Comparative Study of Degradant with Marketed Molnupiravir Impurity- A

The purpose of this study was to create, optimise, and validate a high-performance thin layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method for identifying Molnupiravir (MOL) and its impurity (IMP-MOL). (۳aR,۴R,۶R,۶aR) -۶-(۴-(hydroxyamino) -۲-oxopyrimidin-۱(۲H)-yl) Molnupiravir A is ۲,۲ dimethyltetrahydrofuro [۳,۴-d][۱,۳]dioxol-۴-yl)methyl isobutyrate (MOL IMP) Over concentration ranges of ۰.۱ µg/band to ۰.۶ µg/band and ۰.۰۲ to ۰.۶ µg/band, the proposed technique was employed to analyse Molnupiravir and its impurity, with mean percentage recovery of ۹۹.۹۲% ±۱.۵۲۱ and ۹۹.۲۸% ±۲.۲۹۶, respectively. This method has been done with the separation of two components and ends with the densitometric measurement of the separated peaks at ۲۷۶ nm. The separation was done on silica gel HPTLC F۲۵۴ plates with a Toluene: n-Butanol: Methanol: Water developing system (۵:۳:۱.۵:۰.۵, by volume). The MOL was kept under conditions like oxidative, hydrolytic, thermal stress, and photolytic tests that the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) requires. In acid, alkali, and oxidative hydrolysis, the MOL was unstable, but it was not affected by acidic, heat or UV light. The alkaline degradation of Molnupiravir was studied using the proposed HPTLC approach. The degradant are separated using HPTLC method, and their structures are confirmed using IR, MS, and NMR spectrum data.
