Chemical Structure

Ramelteon Impurity 10 HCl CAS 1053239-39-6 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Ramelteon Impurity 10 HCl (C13H17NOHCl) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Ramelteon Impurity 10 HCl (CAS 1053239-39-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C13H17NOHCl and a molecular weight of 239.74 g/mol.

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.
