Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 819.90 g/mol gives N-nitroso Rifamycin Impurity 16 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
As a process- or degradation-related impurity, N-nitroso Rifamycin Impurity 16 (CAS CATO-C4X-200416, C42H53N5O12) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.
The molecular framework of N-nitroso Rifamycin Impurity 16 (C42H53N5O12) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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).
Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.
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.
