Chemical Structure

Cyproterone Acetate EP Impurity I CAS 13698-49-2 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Cyproterone Acetate EP Impurity I (CAS 13698-49-2, C23H27ClO4) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Cyproterone Acetate EP Impurity I (C23H27ClO4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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 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), Cyproterone Acetate EP Impurity I 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.
