Oxybutynin Impurity 3 CAS 1215677-72-7 chemical structure

Description

Oxybutynin Impurity 3 (CAS 1215677-72-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C23H33NO3 and a molecular weight of 371.51 g/mol.

Oxybutynin Impurity 3 (C23H33NO3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Oxybutynin Impurity 3 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
