Quetiapine Impurity 55 CAS 54920-98-8 chemical structure

Description

Quetiapine Impurity 55 (CAS 54920-98-8) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C13H11NO2S and a molecular weight of 245.30 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Quetiapine Impurity 55 (C13H11NO2S) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
