Chemical Structure

Methotrexate Impurity 45 CAS CATO-C4X-115445 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Methotrexate Impurity 45 (CAS CATO-C4X-115445), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C32H42N8O15, MW 778.72 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Methotrexate Impurity 45 (C32H42N8O15) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

CATO manufactures Methotrexate Impurity 45 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.
