Chemical Structure

Pitavastatin Impurity 82 CAS 782-01-4 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Pitavastatin Impurity 82 (CAS 782-01-4, C13H10FNO) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Pitavastatin Impurity 82 (C13H10FNO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
