Chemical Structure

Phloroglucinol Impurity 25 CAS 108-36-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Phloroglucinol Impurity 25 is closely related to bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Phloroglucinol Impurity 25 (CAS 108-36-1), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C6H4Br2, MW 235.90 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Phloroglucinol Impurity 25 (C6H4Br2) is characterized by bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
