Chemical Structure

Atovaquone EP Impurity B (RC A) CAS 137732-39-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Atovaquone EP Impurity B (RC A) is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Atovaquone EP Impurity B (RC A) (CAS 137732-39-9), molecular formula C22H19ClO3 and molecular weight 366.84 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Atovaquone EP Impurity B (RC A) (C22H19ClO3) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Atovaquone EP Impurity B (RC 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.
