Chemical Structure

Felodipine EP Impurity C CAS 79925-38-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 398.28 g/mol gives Felodipine EP Impurity C distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Felodipine EP Impurity C (CAS 79925-38-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C19H21Cl2NO4, MW 398.28 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Felodipine EP Impurity C (C19H21Cl2NO4) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 398.28 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Felodipine EP Impurity C 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.
