Chemical Structure

Ulipristal Impurity 3 CAS 159681-66-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ulipristal Impurity 3 is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ulipristal Impurity 3 (CAS 159681-66-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C29H35NO4, MW 461.59 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Ulipristal Impurity 3 (C29H35NO4) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ulipristal Impurity 3 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.
