Chemical Structure

Tryptophan EP Impurity L CAS 287170-99-4 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.

Tryptophan EP Impurity L (CAS 287170-99-4) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C21H19N3O2 and a molecular weight of 345.39 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Tryptophan EP Impurity L (C21H19N3O2) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures Tryptophan EP Impurity L 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.
