Chemical Structure

Beraprost Impurity 18 CAS CATO-C4X-218418 chemical structure

Description

Beraprost Impurity 18 (C16H17BrO5) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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).

Beraprost Impurity 18 (CAS CATO-C4X-218418) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C16H17BrO5 and a molecular weight of 369.21 g/mol.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
