CATO supplies Fluphenazine EP Impurity B (CAS 1476-79-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C22H26F3N3O3S, MW 469.52 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Structurally, Fluphenazine EP Impurity B (C22H26F3N3O3S) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 469.52 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
