Chemical Structure

Benzbromarone Impurity 4 CAS 152831-00-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Benzbromarone Impurity 4 is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Benzbromarone Impurity 4 (CAS 152831-00-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C17H12Br2O4 and a molecular weight of 440.08 g/mol.

Benzbromarone Impurity 4 (C17H12Br2O4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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), Benzbromarone Impurity 4 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.
