Chemical Structure

Levothyroxine Impurity 16 CAS 4192-14-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Levothyroxine Impurity 16.

CATO supplies Levothyroxine Impurity 16 (CAS 4192-14-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H13I2NO4, MW 525.08 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, Levothyroxine Impurity 16 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 525.08 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Levothyroxine Impurity 16 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.
