Chemical Structure

Morinidazole Impurity 42 CAS CATO-C4X-219642 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Morinidazole Impurity 42 is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Morinidazole Impurity 42 (CAS CATO-C4X-219642) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C9H15N5O4 and a molecular weight of 257.25 g/mol.

Morinidazole Impurity 42 (C9H15N5O4) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
