Chemical Structure

Imiquimod Impurity N3 CAS 935521-01-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Imiquimod Impurity N3 is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Imiquimod Impurity N3 (CAS 935521-01-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C13H17N3·HCl and a molecular weight of 251.76 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, Imiquimod Impurity N3 is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 251.76 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

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.
