Chemical Structure

All-Rac-Α-Tocopheryl Acetate EP Impurity D CAS CATO-C4X-119535 chemical structure

Description

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.

All-Rac-Α-Tocopheryl Acetate EP Impurity D (CAS CATO-C4X-119535) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C32H54O3 and a molecular weight of 486.77 g/mol.

The molecular framework of All-Rac-Α-Tocopheryl Acetate EP Impurity D (C32H54O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
