Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 473.41 g/mol gives Telmisartan Impurity 41 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Telmisartan Impurity 41 (CAS 1004548-55-3) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C26H25BrN4 and a molecular weight of 473.41 g/mol.
Structurally, Telmisartan Impurity 41 (C26H25BrN4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 16.0, corresponding to approximately 16 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 473.41 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
