Chemical Structure

Hydrocodone EP Impurity D CAS 124-90-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Hydrocodone EP Impurity D is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 351.83 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO supplies Hydrocodone EP Impurity D (CAS 124-90-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C18H21NO4HCl, MW 351.83 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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.

CATO manufactures Hydrocodone EP Impurity D 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.
