Chemical Structure

Loxoprofen Dihydroxy Impurity CAS 88378-22-7 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies Loxoprofen Dihydroxy Impurity (CAS 88378-22-7), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C15H20O4, MW 264.32 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Loxoprofen Dihydroxy Impurity (C15H20O4) is characterized by 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures Loxoprofen Dihydroxy Impurity 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.
