Chemical Structure

Opicapone Impurity N2 CAS 952091-17-7 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.

Opicapone Impurity N2 (CAS 952091-17-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C15H10Cl2N4O5 and a molecular weight of 397.17 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C15H10Cl2N4O5, Opicapone Impurity N2 contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 397.17 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
