Chemical Structure

Doxapram EP Impurity B CAS 1688-76-2 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies Doxapram EP Impurity B (CAS 1688-76-2), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C22H28N2O2, MW 352.47 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Doxapram EP Impurity B (C22H28N2O2) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Doxapram EP Impurity B 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.
