Chemical Structure

Ketoconazole Impurity 18 CAS 13256-06-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ketoconazole Impurity 18 is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Ketoconazole Impurity 18 (CAS 13256-06-9, C10H22N2O) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Ketoconazole Impurity 18 (C10H22N2O) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), Ketoconazole Impurity 18 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.
