Chemical Structure

Lovastatin Impurity 42 CAS CATO-C4X-168442 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 Lovastatin Impurity 42 (CAS CATO-C4X-168442), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula N/A, MW 289.48 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Lovastatin Impurity 42 is supplied as a fully characterized reference material; its structural identity, assigned purity, and stability data are documented in the batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA).

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.
