Chemical Structure

Paclitaxel EP Impurity K CAS 148930-55-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Paclitaxel EP Impurity K (CAS 148930-55-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C53H65NO14Si, MW 968.17 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Paclitaxel EP Impurity K (C53H65NO14Si) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 22.0, corresponding to approximately 22 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 968.17 g/mol, it falls into the high-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
