Chemical Structure

Levosimendan Impurity 37 CAS 103416-88-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Levosimendan Impurity 37 (CAS 103416-88-2), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C11H12N2O2, MW 204.23 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Levosimendan Impurity 37 (C11H12N2O2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), Levosimendan Impurity 37 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.
