Exemestane Impurity 2 CAS 1035-69-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

Exemestane Impurity 2 (CAS 1035-69-4) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C19H24O2 and a molecular weight of 284.39 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Exemestane Impurity 2 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 284.39 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.

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.
