Chemical Structure

Testosterone Impurity N54 CAS 4409-34-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Testosterone Impurity N54.

Testosterone Impurity N54 (CAS 4409-34-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C18H26O2 and a molecular weight of 274.40 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C18H26O2, Testosterone Impurity N54 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 274.40 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).

This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.

CATO manufactures Testosterone Impurity N54 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.
