Quantification of solid-state impurity with powder X-ray diffraction using laboratory source

The application of powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) for the detection and quantification of low levels of a solid-state chemical impurity, BrettPhos oxide, in an active pharmaceutical ingredient is discussed. It is demonstrated that with appropriate methodology and experimentation, the impurity levels of as low as 0.07% w/w could be detected reliably and limit of quantification of 0.10% w/w could be achieved by PXRD, using a laboratory X-ray source. Method development, validation, and benchmarking using conventional high-performance liquid chromatography are presented in the manuscript highlighting the robustness and reproducibility of such measurements.
