Chemical Structure

Dexamethasone Impurity 43 CAS CATO-C4X-116543 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Dexamethasone Impurity 43.

CATO supplies Dexamethasone Impurity 43 (CAS CATO-C4X-116543), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C22H29FO4, MW 376.46 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Dexamethasone Impurity 43 (C22H29FO4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 Dexamethasone Impurity 43 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.
