Chemical Structure

Testosterone Decanoate EP Impurity D CAS 29430-26-0 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 Testosterone Decanoate EP Impurity D.

CATO supplies Testosterone Decanoate EP Impurity D (CAS 29430-26-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C30H46O3, MW 454.68 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Testosterone Decanoate EP Impurity D (C30H46O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 454.68 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
