(S)-Empagliflozin Peracetyl Impurity is a process-related impurity of Empagliflozin formed when acetyl groups (–COCH₃) are added to the molecule, typically during synthesis or protection steps. The (S) denotes the specific stereochemistry at the chiral center. This impurity is monitored and controlled in quality testing to ensure the drug’s purity, safety, and compliance with regulatory standards.
