Chemical Structure

Montelukast Impurity 55 CAS 152922-86-6 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Montelukast Impurity 55 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.

Montelukast Impurity 55 (CAS 152922-86-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C7H11NO3S and a molecular weight of 189.23 g/mol.

Structurally, Montelukast Impurity 55 (C7H11NO3S) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 189.23 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
