Chemical Structure

Levocetirizine Impurity 1 (Chlorobenzhydryl piperazine) CAS 300543-56-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Levocetirizine Impurity 1 (Chlorobenzhydryl piperazine) 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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Levocetirizine Impurity 1 (Chlorobenzhydryl piperazine) (CAS 300543-56-0, C17H19ClN2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Levocetirizine Impurity 1 (Chlorobenzhydryl piperazine) (C17H19ClN2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
