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 supplies Pyronaridine Impurity 16 (CAS 81935-64-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C12H5Cl3N2, MW 283.54 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, Pyronaridine Impurity 16 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 283.54 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Pyronaridine Impurity 16 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.
