Chemical Structure

Loratadine Impurity 79 CAS CATO-C4X-142679 chemical structure

Description

Loratadine Impurity 79 (CAS CATO-C4X-142679) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C20H23BrN2O and a molecular weight of 387.31 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, Loratadine Impurity 79 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 387.31 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.

CATO manufactures Loratadine Impurity 79 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
