Chemical Structure

Norepinephrine Impurity 36 CAS 121-28-8 chemical structure

Description

This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.

CATO supplies Norepinephrine Impurity 36 (CAS 121-28-8), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C11H15NO3, MW 209.24 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Norepinephrine Impurity 36 is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 209.24 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.

CATO manufactures Norepinephrine Impurity 36 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
