CATO supplies Apixaban Impurity 140 (CAS CATO-C4X-1088140), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H26N4O5, MW 402.44 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Structurally, Apixaban Impurity 140 (C20H26N4O5) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 402.44 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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), Apixaban Impurity 140 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.
