Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 236.29 g/mol gives Fosfomycin Impurity 67 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Fosfomycin Impurity 67 (CAS CATO-C4X-131667, C11H25O3P) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.
Structurally, Fosfomycin Impurity 67 (C11H25O3P) contains a phosphonate group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of -0.5, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 236.29 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Fosfomycin Impurity 67 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
