m-Phenylenediamine Impurity 2 CAS CATO-C4X-34282 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including m-Phenylenediamine Impurity 2.

m-Phenylenediamine Impurity 2 (CAS CATO-C4X-34282) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C12H12N4 and a molecular weight of 212.25 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C12H12N4, m-Phenylenediamine Impurity 2 contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 212.25 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.

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 m-Phenylenediamine Impurity 2 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.
