Chemical Structure

Spironolactone Impurity 13 CAS CATO-C4X-134513 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Spironolactone Impurity 13 (CAS CATO-C4X-134513), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H26O2, MW 298.42 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C20H26O2, Spironolactone Impurity 13 contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 298.42 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), Spironolactone Impurity 13 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.
