Chemical Structure

Benzylpenicillin Impurity 34 CAS 56609-07-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 193.20 g/mol gives Benzylpenicillin Impurity 34 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Benzylpenicillin Impurity 34 (CAS 56609-07-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H11NO3 and a molecular weight of 193.20 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Benzylpenicillin Impurity 34 (C10H11NO3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Benzylpenicillin Impurity 34 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
