Trazodone Impurity 101 TriHCl CAS CATO-C4X-1772101 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Trazodone Impurity 101 TriHCl 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.

CATO supplies Trazodone Impurity 101 TriHCl (CAS CATO-C4X-1772101), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C16H19Cl2N3HClHClHCl, MW 433.62 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Trazodone Impurity 101 TriHCl (C16H19Cl2N3HClHClHCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 433.62 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
