Chemical Structure

Ertapenem Impurity Pro-maba CAS 724700-26-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 234.25 g/mol gives Ertapenem Impurity Pro-maba distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Ertapenem Impurity Pro-maba (CAS 724700-26-9) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C12H14N2O3 and a molecular weight of 234.25 g/mol.

Structurally, Ertapenem Impurity Pro-maba (C12H14N2O3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 234.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
