Biapenem impurity 18 CAS CATO-C4X-227318 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies Biapenem impurity 18 (CAS CATO-C4X-227318), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C30H38N8O8S2, MW 702.80 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Biapenem impurity 18 (C30H38N8O8S2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
