Chemical Structure

Orlistat Impurity 16 CAS CATO-C4X-149916 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 Orlistat Impurity 16 (CAS CATO-C4X-149916), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H38O3, MW 326.51 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C20H38O3, Orlistat Impurity 16 contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 326.51 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures Orlistat Impurity 16 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.
