Chemical Structure

Olanzapine EP Impurity B CAS 221176-49-4 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Olanzapine EP Impurity B 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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Olanzapine EP Impurity B (CAS 221176-49-4, C12H10N2OS) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Olanzapine EP Impurity B is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 230.28 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
