Conjugated Estrogens EP Impurity A CAS 56050-04-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 374.43 g/mol gives Conjugated Estrogens EP Impurity A distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Conjugated Estrogens EP Impurity A (CAS 56050-04-5, C18H23NaO5S) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Conjugated Estrogens EP Impurity A (C18H23NaO5S) contains a flavonoid core, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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).

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 Conjugated Estrogens EP Impurity A 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.
