Piperaquine Impurity N1 CAS 4038-99-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Piperaquine Impurity N1 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.

CATO supplies Piperaquine Impurity N1 (CAS 4038-99-7), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C16H19Cl2N3, MW 324.25 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C16H19Cl2N3, Piperaquine Impurity N1 contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 324.25 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.
