Chemical Structure

Letermovir Impurity 8 CAS CATO-C4X-29158 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Letermovir Impurity 8 (CAS CATO-C4X-29158, C29H28F4N4O4) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Structurally, Letermovir Impurity 8 (C29H28F4N4O4) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 16.0, corresponding to approximately 16 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 572.55 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures Letermovir Impurity 8 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
