Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 395.88 g/mol gives Itopride Impurity 7 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies Itopride Impurity 7 (CAS CATO-C4X-13777), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H25NO5HCl, MW 395.88 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Itopride Impurity 7 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 395.88 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
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.
