Chemical Structure

Levothyroxine EP Impurity E CAS 1041-01-6 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.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Levothyroxine EP Impurity E (CAS 1041-01-6, C15H13I2NO4) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Based on its molecular formula C15H13I2NO4, Levothyroxine EP Impurity E contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 525.08 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO manufactures Levothyroxine EP Impurity E under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
