Chemical Structure

Ergometrine Maleate EP Impurity H CAS 29477-88-1 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 Ergometrine Maleate EP Impurity H.

CATO supplies Ergometrine Maleate EP Impurity H (CAS 29477-88-1), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H25N3O2, MW 339.43 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Ergometrine Maleate EP Impurity H (C20H25N3O2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ergometrine Maleate EP Impurity H 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.
