Chemical Structure

Carteolol Impurity 15 CAS CATO-C4X-228715 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Carteolol Impurity 15 (CAS CATO-C4X-228715), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C16H24N2O3, MW 292.37 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Carteolol Impurity 15 (C16H24N2O3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 292.37 g/mol, it falls into the medium-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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Carteolol Impurity 15 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.
