Chemical Structure

Cholic Acid Impurity 19 CAS 2304-89-4 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C24H38O5, Cholic Acid Impurity 19 contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 406.56 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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 supplies Cholic Acid Impurity 19 (CAS 2304-89-4), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C24H38O5, MW 406.56 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Cholic Acid Impurity 19 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.
