Chemical Structure

Metformin-d6 Hydrochloride CAS 1185166-01-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Metformin-d6 Hydrochloride is closely related to deuterium isotope labeling, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Metformin-d6 Hydrochloride (CAS 1185166-01-1), molecular formula C4H5D6N5HCl and molecular weight 171.66 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Metformin-d6 Hydrochloride (C4H5D6N5HCl) is characterized by deuterium isotope labeling, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Metformin-d6 Hydrochloride meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
