Abstract

A Rapid Resolution Reversed Phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (RR RP-HPLC) method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of atorvastatin and seven related compounds specified as impurities. Experimental design was used during method optimization (full factorial 32 design) and robustness testing (central composite design). Chromatography was performed with mobile phase containing phosphate buffer pH 3.5 and a mixture of 10% (v/v) tetrahydrofuran in acetonitrile as organic modifier. A Zorbax Eclipse XDB C18 Rapid Resolution HT 4.6 mm × 50 mm, 1.8 µm particle size column was used. The developed method allowed determination of Atorvastatin Calcium (ATV Ca) purity and level of impurities in drug substances.
