Chemical Structure

Aristolochia lactam impurity 8 CAS 112501-43-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies Aristolochia lactam impurity 8 (CAS 112501-43-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C17H13NO4, MW 295.29 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Aristolochia lactam impurity 8 (C17H13NO4) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing 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.
