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 supplies Alogliptin Impurity 49 (CAS 655-63-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C8H5Br2N, MW 274.94 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Structurally, Alogliptin Impurity 49 (C8H5Br2N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 274.94 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
