Chemical Structure

Dronedarone Impurity 56 CAS 28141-24-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Dronedarone Impurity 56 is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Dronedarone Impurity 56 (CAS 28141-24-4), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C7H5ClO2, MW 156.57 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C7H5ClO2, Dronedarone Impurity 56 contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 156.57 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Dronedarone Impurity 56 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.
