Cyanocobalamin Impurity 26 CAS CATO-C4X-187426 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Cyanocobalamin Impurity 26.

CATO supplies Cyanocobalamin Impurity 26 (CAS CATO-C4X-187426), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C63H86CoN12O16P, MW 1357.36 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Cyanocobalamin Impurity 26 (C63H86CoN12O16P) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a phosphate ester group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 27.0, corresponding to approximately 27 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 1357.36 g/mol, it falls into the 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.

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.
