Chemical Structure

Cefixime Impurity 24 CAS 79368-92-6 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Cefixime Impurity 24 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 509.56 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO supplies Cefixime Impurity 24 (CAS 79368-92-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H23N5O7S2, MW 509.56 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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), Cefixime Impurity 24 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.
