Chemical Structure

Dorzolamide EP Impurity A CAS 120279-95-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

Dorzolamide EP Impurity A (CAS 120279-95-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H16N2O4S3 and a molecular weight of 324.44 g/mol.

Dorzolamide EP Impurity A (C10H16N2O4S3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
