Tadalafil EP Impurity A CAS 171596-27-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Tadalafil EP Impurity A (CAS 171596-27-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C22H19N3O4, MW 389.40 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Tadalafil EP Impurity A (C22H19N3O4) contains a flavonoid core, 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. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Tadalafil EP Impurity A 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.
