ABSTRACT
Objective: To develop an accurate, precise and linear gas chromatography-mass spectrometric (GC-MS) selected-ion-monitoring (SIM) method for
quantitative estimation of 2-chloro methyl propionate (2-CMP), 1,4-dibromo butane and para anisic aldehyde (PAA) as an genotoxic impurities in
mebeverine HCl API (MEB) at ppm level and validated as per International Council of Harmonization (ICH) guidelines.
Methods: This method used in SIM mode mass selective detection was developed and validated for the trace level analysis of three impurities. All
these three impurities are simultaneously determined by a GC-MS method using VF-624 Capillary column (60 m×0.32 mm×1.80 µm) with Helium as
carrier gas and a flow rate of 2.0 mL/minutes. Chromatographic separation of 2-CMP, 1,4-DBB, and PAA was achieved in 7.91, 13.69, 18.45 minutes
and m/z values were 63, 55, 135 on SIM mode.
Results: The method was linear for 2-CMP, 1,4-DBB and PAA in mebeverine HCl 1.90 µg/ml to 7.5 µg/ml, respectively. The coefficient of correlation
(r
) for the 2-CMP, 1,4-DBB and PAA was better than 0.999. The limit of detection obtained was 0.28, 0.35, 0.22 µg/ml and the limit of quantification
(LOQ) obtained was 0.85, 1.06, 0.66 µg/ml. The method was fully validated, complying Food and Drug Administration, ICH and European Medicines
Agency guidelines. Furthermore, verified precision, accuracy, LOQ precision, LOQ accuracy, ruggedness, and robustness.

Conclusion: The proposed method is specific, accurate, precise, linear, rugged and robust for the determination of the three genotoxic impurities in
API of mebeverine HCl, and hence, is of wide applicability in pharmaceutical industries.
