Propranolol Chloro Impurity (CAS 112805-69-3), molecular formula C13H13ClO2 and molecular weight 236.69 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Propranolol Chloro Impurity is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 236.69 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
