ABSTRACT Lansoprazole degradation is accelerated in both acidic and basic medium in water. The present investigation deals with the hydrolytic degradation of Lansoprazole. Acidic medium degradation show all known impurities and degradation products whereas basic degradation studies show new impurity which has higher molecular weight than Lansoprazole. New impurity was identified, isolated using mass based auto purification system and characterised by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, HMBC, HSQC, NOE, COSY and HRMS experiments. Isolated impurity was showing molecular weight of 467.10, molecular formula of C 23 H 16 F 3 N 5 OS and its name is 7-(3-Methyl-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy) pyrid...
