Vitamin K1 Impurity 30 CAS 15448-59-6 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Vitamin K1 Impurity 30 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.

Vitamin K1 Impurity 30 (CAS 15448-59-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C11H8O3 and a molecular weight of 188.18 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Vitamin K1 Impurity 30 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 188.18 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.
