Chemical Structure

Sulfadoxine impurity 4 CAS 5018-23-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Sulfadoxine impurity 4 is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Sulfadoxine impurity 4 (CAS 5018-23-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C11H11ClN4O3S, MW 314.75 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C11H11ClN4O3S, Sulfadoxine impurity 4 contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 314.75 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures Sulfadoxine impurity 4 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.
