Chemical Structure

Retigabine impurity 13 CAS CATO-C4X-13153 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Retigabine impurity 13 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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Retigabine impurity 13 (CAS CATO-C4X-13153, C16H16FN3O4) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Retigabine impurity 13 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 333.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
