Sertaconazole nitrate EP Impurity B (CAS 17512-61-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C9H6BrClS and a molecular weight of 261.57 g/mol.
Structurally, Sertaconazole nitrate EP Impurity B (C9H6BrClS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 261.57 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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.
