Chemical Structure

Raloxifene Impurity 5 CAS 177744-96-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

Raloxifene Impurity 5 (CAS 177744-96-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C21H14O4S and a molecular weight of 362.40 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Raloxifene Impurity 5 (C21H14O4S) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a sulfone 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 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).

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.
