Chemical Structure

Estradiol Valerate EP Impurity C CAS 95959-20-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Estradiol Valerate EP Impurity C 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 Estradiol Valerate EP Impurity C (CAS 95959-20-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C23H30O3, MW 354.48 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Estradiol Valerate EP Impurity C (C23H30O3) 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), Estradiol Valerate EP Impurity C 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.
