Chemical Structure

Drospirenone EP Impurity E CAS 90457-65-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 366.49 g/mol gives Drospirenone EP Impurity E distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Drospirenone EP Impurity E (CAS 90457-65-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C24H30O3 and a molecular weight of 366.49 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Drospirenone EP Impurity E is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 366.49 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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), Drospirenone EP Impurity E 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.
