Chemical Structure

Estriol EP Impurity B (Estrone) CAS 53-16-7 chemical structure

Description

Estriol EP Impurity B (Estrone) (C18H22O2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Estriol EP Impurity B (Estrone) (CAS 53-16-7, C18H22O2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

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 manufactures Estriol EP Impurity B (Estrone) 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.
