Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 445.90 g/mol gives Imatinib Impurity 87 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies Imatinib Impurity 87 (CAS 571187-02-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C24H20ClN5O2, MW 445.90 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Imatinib Impurity 87 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 445.90 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
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.
