Chemical Structure

Mycophenolic Acid Impurity 2 (Mycophenolic Acid Dimer) CAS CATO-C4X-21222 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Mycophenolic Acid Impurity 2 (Mycophenolic Acid Dimer) is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Mycophenolic Acid Impurity 2 (Mycophenolic Acid Dimer) (CAS CATO-C4X-21222) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C34H38O11 and a molecular weight of 622.66 g/mol.

Structurally, Mycophenolic Acid Impurity 2 (Mycophenolic Acid Dimer) (C34H38O11) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 16.0, corresponding to approximately 16 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 622.66 g/mol, it falls into the high-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Mycophenolic Acid Impurity 2 (Mycophenolic Acid Dimer) 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.
