Chemical Structure

Cholesterol Impurity 29 CAS 881024-99-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Cholesterol Impurity 29.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Cholesterol Impurity 29 (CAS 881024-99-3, C27H44O) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Cholesterol Impurity 29 (C27H44O) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), Cholesterol Impurity 29 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.
