Chemical Structure

Clindamycin Impurity 58 CAS CATO-C4X-134158 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Clindamycin Impurity 58 (CAS CATO-C4X-134158, C18H30Cl4N2O2S) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Clindamycin Impurity 58 is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 480.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Clindamycin Impurity 58 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.
