Cefoxitin Impurity 6 CAS 1422023-32-2

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Cefoxitin Impurity 6.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Cefoxitin Impurity 6 (CAS 1422023-32-2, C16H16N3O7S2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Cefoxitin Impurity 6 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 426.44 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures Cefoxitin Impurity 6 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
