Chemical Structure

Naltrexone  Impurity N96 CAS 52446-24-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Naltrexone Impurity N96 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.

CATO supplies Naltrexone Impurity N96 (CAS 52446-24-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C16H17NO4HCl, MW 323.77 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Naltrexone Impurity N96 (C16H17NO4HCl) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 323.77 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.
