Iodixanol Impurity 16 CAS CATO-C4X-166316

Description

The occurrence of Iodixanol Impurity 16 is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Iodixanol Impurity 16 (CAS CATO-C4X-166316, C18H22I3N3O10) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Based on its molecular formula C18H22I3N3O10, Iodixanol Impurity 16 contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 821.09 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.

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.
