Chemical Structure

Piperacillin EP Impurity K CAS 2734474-72-5 chemical structure

Description

Piperacillin EP Impurity K (CAS 2734474-72-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C23H27N5O7S and a molecular weight of 517.55 g/mol.

Structurally, Piperacillin EP Impurity K (C23H27N5O7S) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 13.0, corresponding to approximately 13 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 517.55 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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), Piperacillin EP Impurity K 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.
