Chemical Structure

Ceftriaxone Impurity 26 CAS 77780-49-5 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C5H7N3O2S, Ceftriaxone Impurity 26 contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 173.19 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

CATO supplies Ceftriaxone Impurity 26 (CAS 77780-49-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C5H7N3O2S, MW 173.19 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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), Ceftriaxone Impurity 26 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.
