Chemical Structure

Clofazimine Impurity 26 CAS CATO-C4X-207126 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 Clofazimine Impurity 26.

CATO supplies Clofazimine Impurity 26 (CAS CATO-C4X-207126), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C24H16Cl2N4, MW 431.32 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Clofazimine Impurity 26 (C24H16Cl2N4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Clofazimine Impurity 26 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.
