Chemical Structure

Miconazole EP Impurity I CAS 24169-00-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Miconazole EP Impurity I is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Miconazole EP Impurity I (CAS 24169-00-4), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C18H15Cl3N2OHNO3, MW 444.69 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C18H15Cl3N2OHNO3, Miconazole EP Impurity I contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 444.69 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
