Chemical Structure

Clindamycin Impurity 87 CAS CATO-C4X-134187 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.

Clindamycin Impurity 87 (CAS CATO-C4X-134187) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C18H32Cl2N2O4S and a molecular weight of 443.43 g/mol.

Clindamycin Impurity 87 (C18H32Cl2N2O4S) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Clindamycin Impurity 87 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.
