Chemical Structure

Obeticholic Acid Impurity 53 CAS CATO-C4X-115353 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 420.63 g/mol gives Obeticholic Acid Impurity 53 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Obeticholic Acid Impurity 53 (CAS CATO-C4X-115353), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C26H44O4, MW 420.63 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C26H44O4, Obeticholic Acid Impurity 53 contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 420.63 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures Obeticholic Acid Impurity 53 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
