Chemical Structure

Letermovir impurity 111 CAS CATO-C4X-2915111 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Letermovir impurity 111 is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Letermovir impurity 111 (CAS CATO-C4X-2915111), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C21H16F2N2O4, MW 398.36 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Letermovir impurity 111 (C21H16F2N2O4) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Letermovir impurity 111 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.
