Chemical Structure

Cefazolin Impurity 74 CAS CATO-C4X-157774 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 600.67 g/mol gives Cefazolin Impurity 74 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Cefazolin Impurity 74 (CAS CATO-C4X-157774) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C19H20N8O7S4 and a molecular weight of 600.67 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C19H20N8O7S4, Cefazolin Impurity 74 contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 600.67 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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), Cefazolin 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.
