The occurrence of Cyproterone Acetate EP Impurity C is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies Cyproterone Acetate EP Impurity C (CAS 17183-98-1), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C24H30Cl2O4, MW 453.40 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Cyproterone Acetate EP Impurity C is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 453.40 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.
CATO manufactures Cyproterone Acetate EP Impurity C under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
