Clopidogrel Impurity 124 CAS 1346231-35-3 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 Clopidogrel Impurity 124.

CATO supplies Clopidogrel Impurity 124 (CAS 1346231-35-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C17H18ClNO3S, MW 351.85 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C17H18ClNO3S, Clopidogrel Impurity 124 contains a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 351.85 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
