Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 494.40 g/mol gives Gallic Acid Impurity 1 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies Gallic Acid Impurity 1 (CAS 1782069-25-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C19H26O15, MW 494.40 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Gallic Acid Impurity 1 (C19H26O15) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
