The molecular framework of Vancomycin EP Impurity K (C67H77Cl2N9O24) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, 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).
CATO supplies Vancomycin EP Impurity K (CAS 99759-13-4), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C67H77Cl2N9O24, MW 1463.28 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), Vancomycin EP Impurity K 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.
