Abstract

The introduction into the production of medicinal substances involves the creation of a pharmaceutical dossier, an important component of which is data on pharmaceutical development and quality control methods. The physico-chemical properties of the antiviral substance of favipiravir were investigated, and some basic sections of the analytical documentation were developed. With the help of a complex of physical, chemical, and physico-chemical methods of analysis, the "Identification" test was developed, and the structure of favipiravir was proven. Methods for the determination of related substances by the HPLC with UV detection and the assay of favipiravir by the acid-base titration method, suitable for substance quality control, have been developed. Relative retention times and correction factors for calculating their content are established for all impurities. The methods were validated on the parameters of specificity, accuracy, correctness, and linearity in the studied range of concentrations.

Keywords: high-performance liquid chromatography, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, acid-base titration, favipiravir
