Chemical Structure

Etizolam Impurity 4 CAS 110753-14-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Etizolam Impurity 4.

Etizolam Impurity 4 (CAS 110753-14-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C13H10ClNO2S and a molecular weight of 279.74 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Etizolam Impurity 4 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 279.74 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
