Chemical Structure

Nikethamide Impurity 6 CAS 100-70-9 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Nikethamide Impurity 6 (CAS 100-70-9, C6H4N2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a nitrile group, an aromatic ring system, Nikethamide Impurity 6 is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 104.11 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.

CATO manufactures Nikethamide Impurity 6 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
