Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 343.84 g/mol gives Bromhexine impurity 59 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Bromhexine impurity 59 (CAS 100669-81-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C7H6Br3N and a molecular weight of 343.84 g/mol.
Bromhexine impurity 59 (C7H6Br3N) contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
