Chemical Structure

Etoposide impurity 21 CAS CATO-C4X-202421 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 476.86 g/mol gives Etoposide impurity 21 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Etoposide impurity 21 (CAS CATO-C4X-202421) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C23H21ClO9 and a molecular weight of 476.86 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Etoposide impurity 21 (C23H21ClO9) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures Etoposide impurity 21 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
