Chemical Structure

Clopidogrel Impurity N1 CAS 85567-51-7 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Clopidogrel Impurity N1 (CAS 85567-51-7, C12H12O3S2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Based on its molecular formula C12H12O3S2, Clopidogrel Impurity N1 contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 268.35 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
