Chemical Structure

Acetylcysteine Impurity 24 CAS CATO-C4X-153224 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Acetylcysteine Impurity 24 (C6H9NO5S2) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 239.27 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

CATO supplies Acetylcysteine Impurity 24 (CAS CATO-C4X-153224), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C6H9NO5S2, MW 239.27 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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), Acetylcysteine Impurity 24 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.
