Chemical Structure

Clobetasol Propionate Impurity 12 CAS 3109-01-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Clobetasol Propionate Impurity 12 is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Clobetasol Propionate Impurity 12 (CAS 3109-01-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C20H25FO3 and a molecular weight of 332.41 g/mol.

Clobetasol Propionate Impurity 12 (C20H25FO3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Clobetasol Propionate Impurity 12 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.
