Chemical Structure

Linezolid Impurity 39 CAS 39608-52-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Linezolid Impurity 39 is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Linezolid Impurity 39 (CAS 39608-52-1), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C8H8O3, MW 152.15 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Linezolid Impurity 39 (C8H8O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), Linezolid Impurity 39 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.
