Chemical Structure

Ornidazole Impurity 9 CAS 16773-51-6 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 Ornidazole Impurity 9.

Ornidazole Impurity 9 (CAS 16773-51-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C7H9N3O3 and a molecular weight of 183.16 g/mol.

Ornidazole Impurity 9 (C7H9N3O3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ornidazole Impurity 9 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.
