CATO supplies Cefpodoxime Proxetil EP Impurity C (CAS 339528-86-8), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C21H27N5O9S2, MW 557.60 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Cefpodoxime Proxetil EP Impurity C (C21H27N5O9S2) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone 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).
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.
