Ondansetron impurity 21 CAS 567626-05-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Ondansetron impurity 21 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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Ondansetron impurity 21 (CAS 567626-05-5, C20H16N2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, Ondansetron impurity 21 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 284.35 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
