Chemical Structure

Lornoxicam Impurity 16 CAS 72975-44-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Lornoxicam Impurity 16 is closely related to an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Lornoxicam Impurity 16 (CAS 72975-44-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C7H7NO3S2 and a molecular weight of 217.27 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C7H7NO3S2, Lornoxicam Impurity 16 contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 217.27 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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 certified reference material (CRM), Lornoxicam Impurity 16 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.
