Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Etravirine Impurity 6.
CATO supplies Etravirine Impurity 6 (CAS 1704730-70-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C29H21BrN6O2, MW 565.42 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Structurally, Etravirine Impurity 6 (C29H21BrN6O2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 22.0, corresponding to approximately 22 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 565.42 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-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.
