Chemical Structure

Amorolfine impurity 73 CAS 78613-39-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Amorolfine impurity 73.

CATO supplies Amorolfine impurity 73 (CAS 78613-39-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C21H35NO2, MW 333.51 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Amorolfine impurity 73 (C21H35NO2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 333.51 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), Amorolfine impurity 73 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.
