Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 329.78 g/mol gives Lornoxicam Impurity 40 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Lornoxicam Impurity 40 (CAS CATO-C4X-201640) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C9H12ClNO6S2 and a molecular weight of 329.78 g/mol.
Structurally, Lornoxicam Impurity 40 (C9H12ClNO6S2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 329.78 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.
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.
