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 Montelukast Impurity C167 (CAS 866923-62-8), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C35H35ClN2OS, MW 567.18 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Montelukast Impurity C167 (C35H35ClN2OS) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
