Paclitaxel Impurity 17 (7-(Triethylsilyl)baccatin III) (CAS 115437-21-3), molecular formula C37H52O11Si and molecular weight 700.89 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, Paclitaxel Impurity 17 (7-(Triethylsilyl)baccatin III) is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 700.89 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.
