Chemical Structure

Hydrocortisone Impurity 64 CAS 96391-56-9 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C23H32O5, Hydrocortisone Impurity 64 contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 388.50 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies Hydrocortisone Impurity 64 (CAS 96391-56-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C23H32O5, MW 388.50 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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), Hydrocortisone Impurity 64 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.
