Chemical Structure

Midazolam EP Impurity A CAS 59468-07-4 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C18H15ClFN3, Midazolam EP Impurity A contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 327.78 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).

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Midazolam EP Impurity A (CAS 59468-07-4, C18H15ClFN3) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

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.

CATO manufactures Midazolam EP Impurity A 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.
