Chemical Structure

Pitavastatin Impurity 43 CAS CATO-C4X-103743 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 356.23 g/mol gives Pitavastatin Impurity 43 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Pitavastatin Impurity 43 (CAS CATO-C4X-103743), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C19H15BrFN, MW 356.23 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Pitavastatin Impurity 43 (C19H15BrFN) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/bromine 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Pitavastatin Impurity 43 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
