Chemical Structure

Barbital Impurity 3 (Narcobarbital) CAS 125-55-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 303.15 g/mol gives Barbital Impurity 3 (Narcobarbital) distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Barbital Impurity 3 (Narcobarbital) (CAS 125-55-3), molecular formula C11H15BrN2O3 and molecular weight 303.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Barbital Impurity 3 (Narcobarbital) (C11H15BrN2O3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Barbital Impurity 3 (Narcobarbital) 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.
