Chemical Structure

Leflunomide Impurity 21 CAS 202057-74-7 chemical structure

Description

Leflunomide Impurity 21 (CAS 202057-74-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C12H9N3O2 and a molecular weight of 227.22 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C12H9N3O2, Leflunomide Impurity 21 contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 227.22 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

CATO manufactures Leflunomide Impurity 21 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
