Chemical Structure

Loxoprofen Impurity 5 CAS 81762-82-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Loxoprofen Impurity 5 is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Loxoprofen Impurity 5 (CAS 81762-82-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C17H22O3, MW 274.35 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Loxoprofen Impurity 5 (C17H22O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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), Loxoprofen Impurity 5 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.
