Chemical Structure

Lorazepam Impurity 13 CAS CATO-C4X-104113 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C28H18Cl4N2O3, Lorazepam Impurity 13 contains a steroid 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 572.27 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.

Lorazepam Impurity 13 (CAS CATO-C4X-104113) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C28H18Cl4N2O3 and a molecular weight of 572.27 g/mol.

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), Lorazepam Impurity 13 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.
