Chemical Structure

Lumefantrine Impurity 6 CAS 355841-11-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Lumefantrine Impurity 6 is closely related to a steroid 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.

Lumefantrine Impurity 6 (CAS 355841-11-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C26H24Cl3NO and a molecular weight of 472.83 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Lumefantrine Impurity 6 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 472.83 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures Lumefantrine Impurity 6 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.
