Chemical Structure

Clarithromycin EP Impurity D CAS 101666-68-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Clarithromycin EP Impurity D (CAS 101666-68-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C37H67NO13, MW 733.93 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Clarithromycin EP Impurity D is typically off-white to pale yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 733.93 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.
