Chemical Structure

Methylnaltrexone Bromide Impurity 4 CAS 1005410-32-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methylnaltrexone Bromide Impurity 4 is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methylnaltrexone Bromide Impurity 4 (CAS 1005410-32-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C21H26NO4Br and a molecular weight of 436.35 g/mol.

Structurally, Methylnaltrexone Bromide Impurity 4 (C21H26NO4Br) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 436.35 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methylnaltrexone Bromide Impurity 4 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
