Chemical Structure

Fenofibrate Impurity 20 CAS 60318-63-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Fenofibrate Impurity 20 is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Fenofibrate Impurity 20 (CAS 60318-63-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C23H23ClO10, MW 494.88 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C23H23ClO10, Fenofibrate Impurity 20 contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 494.88 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Fenofibrate Impurity 20 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.
