Chemical Structure

Clopidogrel Impurity 29 CAS 1396607-49-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

Clopidogrel Impurity 29 (CAS 1396607-49-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C16H15ClNO2SBr and a molecular weight of 400.71 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, Clopidogrel Impurity 29 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 400.71 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
