Chemical Structure

Cephalexin Impurity 35 CAS CATO-C4X-126135 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies Cephalexin Impurity 35 (CAS CATO-C4X-126135), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C11H16O3S, MW 228.31 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Cephalexin Impurity 35 is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 228.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

CATO manufactures Cephalexin Impurity 35 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.
