Somatostatin Impurity 3 CAS CATO-C4X-23503 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.

Somatostatin Impurity 3 (CAS CATO-C4X-23503) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C78H106N18O20S2 and a molecular weight of 1679.91 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Somatostatin Impurity 3 is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 1679.91 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Somatostatin Impurity 3 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.
