Chemical Structure

Nifedipine Impurity 23 CAS 65962-15-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Nifedipine Impurity 23 (CAS 65962-15-4, C7H5Br2NO2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Nifedipine Impurity 23 is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 294.93 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures Nifedipine Impurity 23 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.
