Chemical Structure

Etoricoxib impurity 56 CAS 646459-51-0 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Etoricoxib impurity 56 (CAS 646459-51-0, C26H22ClNO4S2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

The molecular framework of Etoricoxib impurity 56 (C26H22ClNO4S2) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Etoricoxib impurity 56 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.
