Chemical Structure

Dexamethasone Impurity 24 CAS 55879-47-5 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Dexamethasone Impurity 24 (C22H29FO6) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 408.46 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Dexamethasone Impurity 24 (CAS 55879-47-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C22H29FO6 and a molecular weight of 408.46 g/mol.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
