Chemical Structure

Benzylpenicillin Impurity 56 CAS CATO-C4X-189956 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Benzylpenicillin Impurity 56 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.

Benzylpenicillin Impurity 56 (CAS CATO-C4X-189956) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C8H15N3O3S and a molecular weight of 233.29 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C8H15N3O3S, Benzylpenicillin Impurity 56 contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 233.29 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

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.
