Chemical Structure

Medroxyprogesterone Acetate EP Impurity D CAS 2242-65-1 chemical structure

Description

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.

Medroxyprogesterone Acetate EP Impurity D (CAS 2242-65-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C24H34O4 and a molecular weight of 386.52 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Medroxyprogesterone Acetate EP Impurity D (C24H34O4) is characterized by a flavonoid core, 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).

CATO manufactures Medroxyprogesterone Acetate EP Impurity D 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.
