Chemical Structure

Tizanidine EP Impurity D CAS 560120-68-5 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Tizanidine EP Impurity D meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

CATO supplies Tizanidine EP Impurity D (CAS 560120-68-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C8H7ClN4S2, MW 258.75 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Tizanidine EP Impurity D (C8H7ClN4S2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 258.75 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
