CATO supplies Tolnaftate Impurity 1 (CAS 61551-82-4), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H12O7S2Na, MW 451.42 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
The molecular framework of Tolnaftate Impurity 1 (C20H12O7S2Na) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
CATO manufactures Tolnaftate Impurity 1 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.
