CATO manufactures Brimonidine EP Impurity E 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.
CATO supplies Brimonidine EP Impurity E (CAS 168329-48-4), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C9H8BrN5, MW 266.10 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Structurally, Brimonidine EP Impurity E (C9H8BrN5) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. 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 266.10 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
