Chemical Structure

Glutathione EP Impurity D CAS 636-58-8 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C8H14N2O5S, Glutathione EP Impurity D contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 250.27 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).

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Glutathione EP Impurity D (CAS 636-58-8, C8H14N2O5S) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

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.
