Vortioxetine Impurity 62 CAS 3240-94-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Vortioxetine Impurity 62 (CAS 3240-94-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C6H12ClNO, MW 149.62 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C6H12ClNO, Vortioxetine Impurity 62 contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 149.62 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), Vortioxetine Impurity 62 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.
