Chemical Structure

(R)-Topotecan CAS 1797985-73-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (R)-Topotecan is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies (R)-Topotecan (CAS 1797985-73-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C23H23N3O5, MW 421.45 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (R)-Topotecan (C23H23N3O5) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (R)-Topotecan 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.
