Chemical Structure

Indometacin Impurity 22 CAS 78458-34-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Indometacin Impurity 22 is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Indometacin Impurity 22 (CAS 78458-34-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C22H22ClNO5 and a molecular weight of 415.87 g/mol.

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Indometacin Impurity 22 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 415.87 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures Indometacin Impurity 22 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.
