Chemical Structure

Cetirizine Impurity 17 CAS CATO-C4X-158217 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Cetirizine Impurity 17 (C25H33ClN2O3) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Cetirizine Impurity 17 (CAS CATO-C4X-158217) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C25H33ClN2O3 and a molecular weight of 444.99 g/mol.

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.

CATO manufactures Cetirizine Impurity 17 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
