Fluorescein impurity 14 (CAS CATO-C4X-290014) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C32H20O7 and a molecular weight of 516.50 g/mol.
Structurally, Fluorescein impurity 14 (C32H20O7) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 23.0, corresponding to approximately 23 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 516.50 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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), Fluorescein impurity 14 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.
