Chemical Structure

Trazodone Impurity 30 CAS 79975-63-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Trazodone Impurity 30 (CAS 79975-63-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C16H16Cl2N2, MW 307.22 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C16H16Cl2N2, Trazodone Impurity 30 contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 307.22 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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 Trazodone Impurity 30 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.
