Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Atorvastatin EP Impurity F.
Atorvastatin EP Impurity F (CAS 1371615-56-3) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C40H48FN3O8 and a molecular weight of 717.82 g/mol.
Structurally, Atorvastatin EP Impurity F (C40H48FN3O8) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 18.0, corresponding to approximately 18 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 717.82 g/mol, it falls into the high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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), Atorvastatin EP Impurity F 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.
