Chemical Structure

Chlorpheniramine Impurity 10 CAS CATO-C4X-118810 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Chlorpheniramine Impurity 10 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.

CATO supplies Chlorpheniramine Impurity 10 (CAS CATO-C4X-118810), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C18H21ClN2O2, MW 332.82 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C18H21ClN2O2, Chlorpheniramine Impurity 10 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 332.82 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
