Chemical Structure

Isoniazid Impurity 7 CAS 15420-02-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Isoniazid Impurity 7.

CATO supplies Isoniazid Impurity 7 (CAS 15420-02-7), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C12H8N4O, MW 224.22 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Isoniazid Impurity 7 (C12H8N4O) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 224.22 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

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.
