Tigecycline Impurity 4 CAS CATO-C4X-18604 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Tigecycline Impurity 4 (CAS CATO-C4X-18604), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C26H32N4O8C2HF3O2, MW 642.58 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Tigecycline Impurity 4 (C26H32N4O8C2HF3O2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Tigecycline Impurity 4 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.
