Chemical Structure

Losartan Impurity 50 CAS CATO-C4X-168350 chemical structure

Description

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.

Losartan Impurity 50 (CAS CATO-C4X-168350) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C22H22Cl2N6 and a molecular weight of 441.36 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Losartan Impurity 50 (C22H22Cl2N6) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
