Chemical Structure

Clofazimine Impurity 3 CAS 90712-89-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

Clofazimine Impurity 3 (CAS 90712-89-3) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C24H15Cl2N3O and a molecular weight of 432.30 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Clofazimine Impurity 3 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 432.30 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.

CATO manufactures Clofazimine Impurity 3 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.
