Fosaprepitant Impurity 48 (CAS 1707-92-2) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C21H21O4P and a molecular weight of 368.36 g/mol.
The molecular framework of Fosaprepitant Impurity 48 (C21H21O4P) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a phosphate ester group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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), Fosaprepitant Impurity 48 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.
