Diazepam EP Impurity C CAS 5220-02-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Diazepam EP Impurity C (CAS 5220-02-0, C16H13ClN2O) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Based on its molecular formula C16H13ClN2O, Diazepam EP Impurity C contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 284.74 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).

CATO manufactures Diazepam EP Impurity C 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.
