Chemical Structure

Triamcinolone Acetonide EP Impurity A CAS 124-94-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Triamcinolone Acetonide EP Impurity A is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Triamcinolone Acetonide EP Impurity A (CAS 124-94-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C21H27FO6 and a molecular weight of 394.43 g/mol.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Triamcinolone Acetonide EP Impurity A is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 394.43 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).

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 certified reference material (CRM), Triamcinolone Acetonide EP Impurity A 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.
