Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 300.37 g/mol gives Bisacodyl impurity 20 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Bisacodyl impurity 20 (CAS CATO-C4X-203720) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C14H20O5S and a molecular weight of 300.37 g/mol.
Bisacodyl impurity 20 (C14H20O5S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
CATO manufactures Bisacodyl impurity 20 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.
