Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 226.29 g/mol gives Pemetrexed Impurity 11 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Pemetrexed Impurity 11 (CAS 778-29-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C11H14O3S and a molecular weight of 226.29 g/mol.
The molecular framework of Pemetrexed Impurity 11 (C11H14O3S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
CATO manufactures Pemetrexed Impurity 11 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
