Chemical Structure

Letermovir Impurity 26 CAS CATO-CP155163 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 Letermovir Impurity 26.

Letermovir Impurity 26 (CAS CATO-CP155163) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C28H26F4N4O4 and a molecular weight of 558.52 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Letermovir Impurity 26 (C28H26F4N4O4) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
