Isothiazole Impurity 3 CAS 252004-29-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Isothiazole Impurity 3.

CATO supplies Isothiazole Impurity 3 (CAS 252004-29-8), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C18H13N3O3S, MW 351.38 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Isothiazole Impurity 3 (C18H13N3O3S) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures Isothiazole Impurity 3 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.
