Mupirocin Impurity 17 CAS 153900-96-0 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Mupirocin Impurity 17 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.

CATO supplies Mupirocin Impurity 17 (CAS 153900-96-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C27H48O7, MW 484.67 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Mupirocin Impurity 17 is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 484.67 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 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.
