CATO manufactures Eszopiclone Impurity 23 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.
Eszopiclone Impurity 23 (CAS 43200-82-4) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C11H5ClN4O2 and a molecular weight of 260.64 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Eszopiclone Impurity 23 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 260.64 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.
Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.
