Chemical Structure

Aztreonam impurity 74 CAS CATO-C4X-152274 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 208.24 g/mol gives Aztreonam impurity 74 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Aztreonam impurity 74 (CAS CATO-C4X-152274), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C6H12N2O4S, MW 208.24 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Aztreonam impurity 74 (C6H12N2O4S) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 208.24 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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), Aztreonam impurity 74 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.
