Chemical Structure

m-Phenylenediamine Impurity 4 CAS CATO-C4X-34284 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 4.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, m-Phenylenediamine Impurity 4 (CAS CATO-C4X-34284, C14H16N2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, m-Phenylenediamine Impurity 4 is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 212.29 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), m-Phenylenediamine Impurity 4 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.
