Glutathione Impurity 21 CAS CATO-C4X-118521

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Glutathione Impurity 21.

Glutathione Impurity 21 (CAS CATO-C4X-118521) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C20H32N6O12S2 and a molecular weight of 612.63 g/mol.

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Glutathione Impurity 21 is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 612.63 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

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.
