Chemical Structure

Flurbiprofen Impurity 43 CAS CATO-C4X-144443 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Flurbiprofen Impurity 43 (CAS CATO-C4X-144443, C18H19FO2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Flurbiprofen Impurity 43 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 286.34 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).

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.

CATO manufactures Flurbiprofen Impurity 43 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.
