Levocetirizine Impurity 72 CAS CATO-C4X-108372 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Levocetirizine Impurity 72 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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Levocetirizine Impurity 72 (CAS CATO-C4X-108372, C28H39ClN2O7) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Levocetirizine Impurity 72 (C28H39ClN2O7) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.
