Chemical Structure

Ornidazole Impurity 77 CAS CATO-C4X-133177 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ornidazole Impurity 77 is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a phosphate ester group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ornidazole Impurity 77 (CAS CATO-C4X-133177), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C7H12N3O7P, MW 281.16 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Ornidazole Impurity 77 (C7H12N3O7P) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a phosphate ester group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.5, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 281.16 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
