Chemical Structure

Oxytetracycline EP Impurity B Hydrate CAS 305833-60-7 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

CATO supplies Oxytetracycline EP Impurity B Hydrate (CAS 305833-60-7), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C22H24N2O8H2O, MW 462.45 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Oxytetracycline EP Impurity B Hydrate (C22H24N2O8H2O) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 462.45 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Oxytetracycline EP Impurity B Hydrate 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.
