Chemical Structure

Cetirizine Impurity 33 CAS CATO-C4X-158233 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Cetirizine Impurity 33 (C19H22Cl2N2HCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 385.76 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-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.

Cetirizine Impurity 33 (CAS CATO-C4X-158233) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C19H22Cl2N2HCl and a molecular weight of 385.76 g/mol.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
