Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Estriol impurity 23.
Estriol impurity 23 (CAS 1247-47-8) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C22H26O5 and a molecular weight of 370.44 g/mol.
Structurally, Estriol impurity 23 (C22H26O5) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 370.44 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
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.
