Chemical Structure

(5Z)-Pioglitazone EP Impurity B CAS 136401-69-9 chemical structure

Description

(5Z)-Pioglitazone EP Impurity B (C19H18N2O3S) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

(5Z)-Pioglitazone EP Impurity B (CAS 136401-69-9) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C19H18N2O3S and a molecular weight of 354.42 g/mol.

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), (5Z)-Pioglitazone EP Impurity B 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.
