Chemical Structure

Beclometasone Impurity 44 CAS 18769-20-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Beclometasone Impurity 44 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 Beclometasone Impurity 44 (CAS 18769-20-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C24H33ClO6, MW 452.97 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Beclometasone Impurity 44 (C24H33ClO6) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 452.97 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
