Cefpodoxime Proxetil Impurity 20 CAS CATO-C4X-157920 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

Cefpodoxime Proxetil Impurity 20 (CAS CATO-C4X-157920) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C24H27N7O9S3 and a molecular weight of 653.71 g/mol.

Structurally, Cefpodoxime Proxetil Impurity 20 (C24H27N7O9S3) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 15.0, corresponding to approximately 15 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 653.71 g/mol, it falls into the high-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
