Stigmasterol Impurity 4 CAS 7212-91-1 chemical structure

Description

Stigmasterol Impurity 4 (CAS 7212-91-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C29H48O and a molecular weight of 412.69 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C29H48O, Stigmasterol Impurity 4 contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 412.69 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

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.
