Adapalene Impurity 22 CAS CATO-C4X-180922 chemical structure

Description

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.

Adapalene Impurity 22 (CAS CATO-C4X-180922) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C36H36O4 and a molecular weight of 532.67 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C36H36O4, Adapalene Impurity 22 contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 532.67 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Adapalene Impurity 22 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
