Chemical Structure

Cefotaxime EP Impurity D Sodium Salt CAS 65715-12-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Cefotaxime EP Impurity D Sodium Salt.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Cefotaxime EP Impurity D Sodium Salt (CAS 65715-12-0, C16H16N5NaO7S2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Structurally, Cefotaxime EP Impurity D Sodium Salt (C16H16N5NaO7S2) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.5, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 477.45 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).

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), Cefotaxime EP Impurity D Sodium Salt 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.
