Chemical Structure

Estetrol Impurity 8 CAS 28200-88-6 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Estetrol Impurity 8 (CAS 28200-88-6, C26H30O4) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Estetrol Impurity 8 (C26H30O4) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 Estetrol Impurity 8 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.
