Chemical Structure

Atorvastatin Impurity 37 CAS 63423-96-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Atorvastatin Impurity 37 is closely related to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Atorvastatin Impurity 37 (CAS 63423-96-1), molecular formula C5H8NSBr and molecular weight 194.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution, Atorvastatin Impurity 37 is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 194.09 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
