Chemical Structure

Clopidogrel EP Impurity F HCl CAS 141109-19-5 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.

CATO supplies Clopidogrel EP Impurity F HCl (CAS 141109-19-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C15H16ClNO2SHCl, MW 346.27 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Clopidogrel EP Impurity F HCl is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 346.27 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Clopidogrel EP Impurity F HCl 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.
