Chemical Structure

Pirfenidone Impurity 50 CAS CATO-C4X-222950 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Pirfenidone Impurity 50 (CAS CATO-C4X-222950), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C6H8N2, MW 108.14 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C6H8N2, Pirfenidone Impurity 50 contains a nitrile group, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 108.14 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
