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.
CATO supplies Levocarnitine Impurity N11 (CAS 101396-87-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C6H15ClNO, MW 152.64 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Structurally, Levocarnitine Impurity N11 (C6H15ClNO) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of -0.5, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 152.64 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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.
