Chemical Structure

Cefotiam Impurity 44 CAS CATO-C4X-120444 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 972.16 g/mol gives Cefotiam Impurity 44 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Cefotiam Impurity 44 (CAS CATO-C4X-120444), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C36H49N19O6S4, MW 972.16 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Cefotiam Impurity 44 (C36H49N19O6S4) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
