Etoposide EP Impurity B CAS 100007-56-5 chemical structure

Description

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.

Etoposide EP Impurity B (CAS 100007-56-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C29H32O13 and a molecular weight of 588.56 g/mol.

Etoposide EP Impurity B (C29H32O13) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
