Chemical Structure

Iopamidol Impurity 57 CAS CATO-C4X-145057 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Iopamidol Impurity 57.

CATO supplies Iopamidol Impurity 57 (CAS CATO-C4X-145057), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C8H11ClO5, MW 222.62 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Iopamidol Impurity 57 is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.62 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.

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.
