As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Rivastigmine Impurity 42 (CAS CATO-C4X-138442, C10H16O4SC10H15NO) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.
Rivastigmine Impurity 42 (C10H16O4SC10H15NO) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), Rivastigmine Impurity 42 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.
