Chemical Structure

Nitrendipine Impurity 3 CAS 76258-20-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 344.32 g/mol gives Nitrendipine Impurity 3 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Nitrendipine Impurity 3 (CAS 76258-20-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C17H16N2O6, MW 344.32 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Nitrendipine Impurity 3 (C17H16N2O6) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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 manufactures Nitrendipine Impurity 3 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.
