Chemical Structure

Clobazam Impurity 3 CAS CATO-C4X-27523 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Clobazam Impurity 3 is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Clobazam Impurity 3 (CAS CATO-C4X-27523), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C27H18Cl2N4O6, MW 565.36 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Clobazam Impurity 3 (C27H18Cl2N4O6) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 20.0, corresponding to approximately 20 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 565.36 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Clobazam Impurity 3 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.
