Chemical Structure

Triclosan Impurity 7 CAS 134479-47-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 231.08 g/mol gives Triclosan Impurity 7 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Triclosan Impurity 7 (CAS 134479-47-3) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H8Cl2O2 and a molecular weight of 231.08 g/mol.

Structurally, Triclosan Impurity 7 (C10H8Cl2O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 231.08 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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), Triclosan Impurity 7 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.
