Ib. Mass Spectrum

Method: 4.5 kV ESI; vaporization temperature: 200 °C, direct inlet

m/z fragments
340 [ MH ]
214 [ M – C7H6Cl ]
188 [ M – C5H11NCH – H2O – Cl ]
125 [ C7H6Cl ]

The signals of the mass spectrum and their interpretation are consistent with the structural formula.

Ic. IR Spectrum

Method: Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) Spectroscopy

The signals of the IR spectrum and their interpretation are consistent with the structural formula.

II. Purity

The purity of the reference substance was analysed by high performance liquid chromatography
(HPLC).

For the calculation the system peaks were ignored. The content of the analyte was determined as ratio
of the peak area of the analyte and the cumulative areas of the purities, added up to 100 %.

III. Water Content

Method: Karl Fischer titration

No significant amounts of water were detected (< 0.05 %).

IV. Residual Solvents

1
Method: H-NMR

Result: 0.71 % Ethyl acetate

0.07 % Cyclohexane

V. Final Result

Total impurities (HPLC) 0.62 %

Water content n. d. (not detected)
Residual solvents 0.78 %
1
Assay (100 % method) 98.60 %

The assay is assessed to be 98.6 % ‘as is’

The assay 'as is' is equivalent to the assay based on the not anhydrous and not dried substance
respectively.

1
The calculation of the 100 % method follows the formula:

Purity HPLC (%)

Assay (%) = (100 % - KF - RES) * 100 %

Water (KF) and Residual solvents (RES) are considered as absolute contributions, HPLC purity is considered as relative
contribution.
