Chemical Structure

Letermovir Impurity 12 CAS CATO-C4X-291512 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 Letermovir Impurity 12 (CAS CATO-C4X-291512), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H18F4N2O4, MW 426.36 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C20H18F4N2O4, Letermovir Impurity 12 contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 426.36 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Letermovir Impurity 12 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.
