Chemical Structure

Dexamethasone Impurity 23 CAS 59860-99-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

Dexamethasone Impurity 23 (CAS 59860-99-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C22H27FO4 and a molecular weight of 374.45 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Dexamethasone Impurity 23 (C22H27FO4) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO manufactures Dexamethasone Impurity 23 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.
