Chemical Structure

Cefdinir Impurity 79 CAS 116856-25-8 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Cefdinir Impurity 79 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.

Cefdinir Impurity 79 (CAS 116856-25-8) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C17H18ClN5O7S2 and a molecular weight of 503.94 g/mol.

Cefdinir Impurity 79 (C17H18ClN5O7S2) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
