Chemical Structure

Droperidol EP Impurity C CAS 60373-76-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 411.86 g/mol gives Droperidol EP Impurity C distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Droperidol EP Impurity C (CAS 60373-76-4) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C22H19FN3O2Cl and a molecular weight of 411.86 g/mol.

Structurally, Droperidol EP Impurity C (C22H19FN3O2Cl) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 14.0, corresponding to approximately 14 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 411.86 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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), Droperidol EP Impurity C 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.
