Chemical Structure

Acetylcysteine impurity 71 CAS CATO-C4X-153271 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Acetylcysteine impurity 71 is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Acetylcysteine impurity 71 (CAS CATO-C4X-153271), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C11H19NO9S, MW 341.33 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Acetylcysteine impurity 71 (C11H19NO9S) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Acetylcysteine impurity 71 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.
