Chemical Structure

Phenoxymethylpenicillin Calcium - API Standards CAS 147-48-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 738.84 g/mol gives Phenoxymethylpenicillin Calcium - API Standards distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Phenoxymethylpenicillin Calcium - API Standards (CAS 147-48-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H18N2O5SC16H16N2O5SCa and a molecular weight of 738.84 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Phenoxymethylpenicillin Calcium - API Standards is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 738.84 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Phenoxymethylpenicillin Calcium - API Standards 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.
