Chemical Structure

Ubidecarenone Impurity 16 CAS 2538537-69-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Ubidecarenone Impurity 16.

Ubidecarenone Impurity 16 (CAS 2538537-69-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C60H92O4 and a molecular weight of 877.37 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, Ubidecarenone Impurity 16 is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 877.37 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.

CATO manufactures Ubidecarenone Impurity 16 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.
