CAS Number: 59-05-2
Synonyms: 4-Amino-5-chloro-N-[2-(diethylamino)ethyl]-2-methoxybenzamide
Chemical Formula: C20H22N8O5

Industrial Uses & Applications:
Methotrexate Is A Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drug Dmard And Antimetabolite Widely Used In The Treatment Of Cancer And Autoimmune Disorders. It Works By Inhibiting Dihydrofolate Reductase, Thereby Interfering With Dna Synthesis, Cell Replication, And Immune Cell Activity. Methotrexate Is Commonly Prescribed For Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriasis, And Certain Cancers Such As Leukemia.



Exceptional Chemical Purity and Quality Control

Methotrexate is rigorously manufactured and tested to comply with international pharmacopeia standards (USP/BP/EP). With a purity of 98-99% and total impurities not exceeding 1.0%, each batch undergoes stringent quality control. The product maintains extremely low lead and heavy metal content (NMT 0.001%), ensuring suitability for pharmaceutical and research requirements. Its white crystalline, solid form represents both visual purity and compound stability.


Safe Handling and Long-Term Storage

Methotrexate should be stored between 2-8C in tightly sealed HDPE containers or as specified by customer needs. This temperature range ensures the preservation of its chemical integrity for up to three years from the date of manufacture. Proper storage minimizes moisture uptake (NMT 2.0%) and prevents degradation, ensuring reliable potency throughout its shelf life.


Applications and Pharmaceutical Significance

As an antineoplastic antifolate, Methotrexate is primarily used in chemotherapy for the treatment of various cancers by inhibiting cellular DNA synthesis via dihydrofolate reductase inhibition. It is also applied in research settings to study cell proliferation and folate metabolism. Its reliable assay (NLT 98%) and controlled impurity profile make it a trusted active pharmaceutical ingredient worldwide.

FAQ's of Methotrexate (59-05-2) (C20H22N8O5):


Q: How should Methotrexate be stored to maintain its stability and efficacy?

A: Methotrexate should be stored at a recommended temperature range of 2-8C in sealed HDPE containers or as per specific customer requirements. This cold storage preserves its potency, minimizes moisture absorption, and extends its shelf life up to three years from the date of manufacture.

Q: What is the main pharmaceutical use of Methotrexate?

A: Methotrexate is primarily utilized as an antineoplastic antifolate chemotherapy agent. It works by inhibiting dihydrofolate reductase, thereby preventing DNA synthesis and cell proliferation, which is crucial in the treatment of various cancers and autoimmune conditions.

Q: When does the shelf life of Methotrexate expire?

A: The shelf life of Methotrexate is three years from the date of manufacture, provided it is stored according to the recommended conditions, helping ensure consistent quality and activity during this period.

Q: Where is Methotrexate manufactured and packaged?
