Paclitaxel Impurity 38 CAS 173101-55-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Paclitaxel Impurity 38 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.

CATO supplies Paclitaxel Impurity 38 (CAS 173101-55-8), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C45H55NO14, MW 833.92 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Paclitaxel Impurity 38 (C45H55NO14) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 19.0, corresponding to approximately 19 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 833.92 g/mol, it falls into the high-molecular-weight range. 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.
