Lacosamide EP Impurity F (R-isomer) (CAS 175481-38-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C12H16N2O3 and a molecular weight of 236.27 g/mol.
The molecular framework of Lacosamide EP Impurity F (R-isomer) (C12H16N2O3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
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.
