Chemical Structure

Progesterone Impurity 37 CAS 3962-66-1 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 Progesterone Impurity 37 (CAS 3962-66-1), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C18H24O2, MW 272.38 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C18H24O2, Progesterone Impurity 37 contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 272.38 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures Progesterone Impurity 37 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
