Chemical Structure

Sertraline Hydrochloride EP Impurity D CAS CATO-C4X-13444 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Sertraline Hydrochloride EP Impurity D (CAS CATO-C4X-13444), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C17H18ClNHCl, MW 308.25 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C17H18ClNHCl, Sertraline Hydrochloride EP Impurity D contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 308.25 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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), Sertraline Hydrochloride EP Impurity D 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.
