Chemical Structure

Betamethasone Impurity N22 CAS 116522-68-0 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Betamethasone Impurity N22 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 406.44 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Betamethasone Impurity N22 (CAS 116522-68-0, C22H27FO6) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

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.

CATO manufactures Betamethasone Impurity N22 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.
