Chemical Structure

Cholic acid Impurity 11 CAS 84848-09-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Cholic acid Impurity 11 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 Cholic acid Impurity 11 (CAS 84848-09-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C24H40O4, MW 392.57 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Cholic acid Impurity 11 (C24H40O4) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Cholic acid Impurity 11 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.
