Simvastatin EP Impurity C CAS 210980-68-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Simvastatin 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.

Simvastatin EP Impurity C (CAS 210980-68-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C25H36O4 and a molecular weight of 400.55 g/mol.

Structurally, Simvastatin EP Impurity C (C25H36O4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 400.55 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
