Chemical Structure

Chlorzoxazone Impurity 6 CAS CATO-C4X-27776 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Chlorzoxazone Impurity 6 (CAS CATO-C4X-27776), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C14H6Cl2N2O4, MW 337.11 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Chlorzoxazone Impurity 6 (C14H6Cl2N2O4) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Chlorzoxazone Impurity 6 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.
