Chemical Structure

Ezetimibe Impurity 3 CAS CATO-C4X-10983 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ezetimibe Impurity 3 is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ezetimibe Impurity 3 (CAS CATO-C4X-10983) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C24H21F2NO3 and a molecular weight of 409.43 g/mol.

Structurally, Ezetimibe Impurity 3 (C24H21F2NO3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 14.0, corresponding to approximately 14 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 409.43 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), Ezetimibe Impurity 3 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.
