Chemical Structure

Metformin Hydrochloride CAS 1115-70-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Metformin Hydrochloride.

CATO supplies Metformin Hydrochloride (CAS 1115-70-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H11N5HCl, MW 165.62 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Metformin Hydrochloride (C4H11N5HCl) contains chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
