Chemical Structure

Mesalazine Impurity 25 CAS 42753-75-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Mesalazine Impurity 25 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.

Mesalazine Impurity 25 (CAS 42753-75-3) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C8H9NO3 and a molecular weight of 167.16 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Mesalazine Impurity 25 (C8H9NO3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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 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.
