Chemical Structure

Sitagliptin EP Impurity C CAS 945261-48-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Sitagliptin EP Impurity C is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Sitagliptin EP Impurity C (CAS 945261-48-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C16H16F5N5O, MW 389.32 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Sitagliptin EP Impurity C (C16H16F5N5O) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 manufactures Sitagliptin EP Impurity C 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.
