Chemical Structure

Levothyroxine Impurity 20 CAS 7069-47-8 chemical structure

Description

Levothyroxine Impurity 20 (CAS 7069-47-8), molecular formula C15H10I4O5 and molecular weight 777.85 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C15H10I4O5, Levothyroxine Impurity 20 contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 777.85 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

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.
