Levy Michael Kraft Abstract Agilent Equipment 7890A GC system G1888 headspace sampler Application Area Pharmaceutical quality control Pharmaceutical development Residual solvents analysis The Application Note describes the implications for laboratories of the latest revision of the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) residual solvents analysis method that will take effect on July 1, Laboratories will eventually face the task of performing confirmation analysis with their gas chromatography (GC) systems for the various target compounds. In this note a GC method based on headspace sampling is presented, which meets the requirements of the latest USP revision and provides the high precision and sensitivity necessary for quantitative confirmation analysis of residual solvents in pharmaceutical products. The method uses an Agilent 7890A GC system with the following components: Agilent headspace sampler (G1888) Dual matched capillary columns (DB-WAX and DB-624) of different polarities in a single split/splitless inlet Dual flame ionization detector
2 Introduction In 1988, the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) provided control limits and testing criteria for several organic volatile impurities (OVIs) under the official General Chapter <467>. The compounds were chosen based on relative toxicity and only applied to drug substances and some excipients. In an effort to harmonize with the International Conference for Harmonization (ICH), the USP has proposed the adoption of a slightly modified version of Quality-3C (Q3C) methodology, which has been scheduled for implementation on July 1, The methodology provides an approach to residual solvent analysis that considers a patient s exposure to a solvent residue in the drug product. Solvents have been classified based on their potential health risks into three main classes: Class 1: Solvents should not be used because of the unacceptable toxicities or deleterious environmental effects. Class 2: Solvents should be limited because of inherent toxicities. Class 3: Solvents that may be regarded as less toxic and of lower risk to human health. Testing is only required for those solvents used in the manufacturing or purification process of drug substances, excipients, or products. pharmaceutically acceptable intake level of a residual solvent. When the solvent level in drug substances, excipients, and drug product are below the PDE limit for a given solvent, testing is not required when the daily dose is less than 10 grams. When the level of solvent is expected to be above the PDE limit, testing would be required to determine whether the solvent was removed during the formulation process. The USP has provided a method for the identification, control, and quantification of Class 1 and 2 residual solvents for either water soluable or unsoluable compounds. The method calls for a gas chromatographic analysis with flame ionization detection (FID) and headspace sampling from either water or organic diluents. The monograph has suggested two procedures: Procedure A G43 (DB- 624) phase and Procedure B G16 (DB-WAX) phase. Procedure A is used first. If a compound is determined to be above the specified concentration limit, then Procedure B be should be used to confirm its identity. Since there are known co-elutions on both phases, the orthogonal selectivity ensures that co-elutions on one phase will be resolved on the A other. Neither procedure is quantitative, so to determine the concentration the monograph specifies Procedure C, which utilizes whichever phase will give the fewest co-elutions. In this study all of the three procedures were combined. This was achieved by the use of simultaneous dual capillary column GC. Instead of injecting onto two independent capillary columns of differing polarities, which is required for component confirmation, a single injection was made by headspace sample introduction onto two columns simultaneously. Each column was connected to its own FID. This simultaneous GC injection can be accomplished in several ways: Splitter (analogous to a glass tee or a capillary flow splitter) Press-fit connector (where the capillary column is seated by pressing into a y-shaped glass connector). Two-holed ferrule with a single two-holed column nut (this is the approach highlighted in this application note). Experimental A two-holed ferrule (figure 1) and a single two-holed column nut B The new <467> General Chapter provides an optional method to determine when residual solvent testing is required for Class 2 solvents. Each Class 2 solvent is assigned a permitted daily exposure (PDE) limit, which is the 2 Figure 1 Two-holed ferrule/column nut for the installation of simultaneous dual capillary column into a single inlet with two FIDs.
3 were used for both capillary columns, resulting in just as many connections as there are when using a single capillary column. The traditional approaches that utilize splitters and press-fit connectors are plagued with multiple connections and therefore multiple leak possibilities. There is also the ability to use the new multidimensional capillary flow device technology (such as Deans switching) that can be configured into an Agilent 7890A GC. However, the 7890A GC used for this study was not configured with that capability. Using the two-holed ferrule approach was very convenient because it did not require the purchase of any extensive parts. Any split/splitless inlet in a 7890A GC could be easily adapted to this approach. The only requirement to ensure proper precision and quantification for simultaneous twoholed dual column GC is to use two matched columns (each with identical lengths and internal diameters). After careful installation of both columns into the single inlet, each capillary column was connected to two identical flame ionization detectors. The signals from both detectors were simultaneously acquired using Agilent ChemStation software (version B.03.01). Table 1 lists the optimized GC and headspace operational variables. Figure 2 represents a schematic block diagram of the 7890A and headspace configuration for the experiments. Standard solutions (appropriate standards were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich) were all prepared quantitatively in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).

These mixtures were all custom made. Several method modifications were made to ensure the required sensitivities and precision of the respective target analytes, while at the same time trying to minimize total analysis times without compromising peak separations. Headspace sampling precision, sensitivity and turnaround were all improved by the following: Setting the vial-shake setting to high Pressurizing the headspace vials to 15 psi Pressurizing the headspace sampling loop to 9 psi (with back pressure regulation) Setting the carrier gas pressure to 35 psi Setting the headspace venting time (which essentially fills the sample loop) to 0.1 minutes or less Target mix 1 DB-624 DB-WAX Methanol Cyclohexane Acetonitrile Methyl cyclohexane Methylene chloride trans 1,2-dichlorethene/Tetrahydrofuran trans 1,2-dichloroethene Methanol cis 1,2-dichloroethene Methylene chloride Tetrahydrofuran cis 1,2-dichloroethene Cyclohexane Acetonitrile Methyl cyclohexane Toluene 1,4--dioxane 1,4-diosane Toluene Ethyl benzene Chlorobenzene p-xylene Ethyl benzene m-xylene m-xylene/p-xylene o-xylene o-xylene Chlorobenzene DMA DMA Target mix 2 DB-624 DB-WAX Hexane Hexane Nitromethane 1,2-dimethoxyethane Chloroform Trichloroethylene 1,2-dimethoxyethane Chloroform Trichloroethylene 2-hexanone Pyridine Nitromethane 2-hexanone Pyridine Tetralin Tetralin DMSO DMSO Target mix 3 DB-624 DB-WAX 1,1-dichloroethene 1,1-dichloroethene 1,1,1-trichloroethane 1,1,1-trichloroethane/carbon tetrachloride Carbon tetrachloride Benzene Benzene 1,2-dichloroethane Table 3 Composition and elution orders of target analyte standards. With the evolution of the electronic pneumatics to the newest generation in the 7890A GC, the gas 6
7 sampling loop in the headspace sampler can now be controlled to psi. It can also be efficiently pressurized throughout the duration of the timed headspace events cycle with back pressure control. The elevation of the column pressures for the GC runs allowed column flows near 10 ml/min for both of the 0.32 mm id columns and not only enhanced precision and sensitivity but also the resolution of the peaks. In short, the capillary columns functioned better at elevated flow (pressure). Elevating the column flows too high could result in loss of separation.

This is why it would even be more beneficial to reduce column diameters further to 0.18 mm. Column pressure can be increased even more with lower flows that would help maintain the same linear velocities. The resulting narrow peaks in this study (peak widths as small as seconds) provided improved separations which worked well with the control of column pressures with the 7890A GC. Table 4 lists the reproducibility of the various selected targets for the dual GC column separations.

A) Chloroform, Linearity: B) Benzene, Linearity: C) 1,4-Dioxane, Linearity: D) 1,2-Dichloroethane, Linearity: To maintain excellent precision and peak shapes, these inlet parts needed to be replaced on a regular basis and were to be treated as ultra-clean parts. Typically, the 7
8 two-holed column nuts (Agilent part number ) were used to coincide with the short style graphite/vespel two-holed ferrules (0.5 mm for 0.32 mm ID columns, Agilent order number ; 0.4 mm for 0.25 mm ID and smaller, Agilent order number ). Five dilutions of standard solutions were prepared ranging from one tenth to two times the limit concentration to determine the linearity of the calibration curves. These linearity plots of the calibration curves are shown in figures 5 and 6 for the DB-WAX and DB-624 capillary columns. The linearity results for methylene chloride, 1,2 dichloroethane, 1,4-dioxane, chloroform and trichloroethylene are shown for these target analytes for each of the columns.
