Chemical Structure

N-Nitroso Fexofenadine EP Impurity E CAS 1038-06-8 chemical structure

Description

N-Nitroso Fexofenadine EP Impurity E (CAS 1038-06-8) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C18H20N2O2 and a molecular weight of 296.36 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C18H20N2O2, N-Nitroso Fexofenadine EP Impurity E contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 296.36 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
