Abstract

The impurities in bulk, commercial, and investigational methotrexate samples were chromatographically separated by gradient elution from a diethylaminoethylcellulose column. Besides the already known impurities in the bulk and commercial samples, two other impurities, 4-amino-Nl0-methylpteroyl-N-methylglutamine and 2,4-di-amino-N10-methylpteramide, were identified. A new batch of methotrexate, synthesized for the National Cancer Institute for investigational use only, showed a different spectrum of impurities. The purity of all methotrexate samples studied was about 86% calculated on an anhydrous basis.
