Chemical Structure

Limaprost Impurity 20 CAS CATO-C4X-214520 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Limaprost Impurity 20 is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Limaprost Impurity 20 (CAS CATO-C4X-214520), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C22H36O5, MW 380.53 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C22H36O5, Limaprost Impurity 20 contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 380.53 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.

CATO manufactures Limaprost 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.
