Chemical Structure

Benzylpenicillin CP Impurity J CAS CATO-C4X-189910 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Benzylpenicillin CP Impurity J is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 380.42 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Benzylpenicillin CP Impurity J (CAS CATO-C4X-189910, C17H20N2O6S) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

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.
