Chemical Structure

Fenofibrate Impurity 2 CAS 62809-66-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Fenofibrate Impurity 2 (CAS 62809-66-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C17H15ClO4, MW 318.75 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Fenofibrate Impurity 2 (C17H15ClO4) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine 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. 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.

CATO manufactures Fenofibrate Impurity 2 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.
