Chemical Structure

Cefaclor Impurity 36 CAS CATO-C4X-127036 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Cefaclor Impurity 36 (CAS CATO-C4X-127036), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C22H19Cl2N5O6S2, MW 584.45 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Cefaclor Impurity 36 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 584.45 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Cefaclor Impurity 36 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.
