Chemical Structure

Digoxin EP Impurity C CAS 1672-46-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Digoxin EP Impurity C is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Digoxin EP Impurity C (CAS 1672-46-4) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C23H34O5 and a molecular weight of 390.51 g/mol.

Digoxin EP Impurity C (C23H34O5) contains a flavonoid core, 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. 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.

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.
