Chemical Structure

Ertapenem Impurity 28 CAS CATO-C4X-163328 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ertapenem Impurity 28 is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ertapenem Impurity 28 (CAS CATO-C4X-163328) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C44H50N6O14S2C43H50N6O12S2 and a molecular weight of 1858.05 g/mol.

Structurally, Ertapenem Impurity 28 (C44H50N6O14S2C43H50N6O12S2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 44.0, corresponding to approximately 44 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 1858.05 g/mol, it falls into the high-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
