Galantamine EP Impurity B CAS 1668-85-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Galantamine EP Impurity B 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.

Galantamine EP Impurity B (CAS 1668-85-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C17H21NO3 and a molecular weight of 287.35 g/mol.

Structurally, Galantamine EP Impurity B (C17H21NO3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 287.35 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
