Chemical Structure

Cetirizine EP Impurity D DiHCl CAS 856841-95-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

Cetirizine EP Impurity D DiHCl (CAS 856841-95-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C30H28Cl2N2HCl and a molecular weight of 523.93 g/mol.

Cetirizine EP Impurity D DiHCl (C30H28Cl2N2HCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Cetirizine EP Impurity D DiHCl 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.
