Chemical Structure

(R)-Pregabalin EP Impurity A CAS 181289-22-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (R)-Pregabalin EP Impurity A is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(R)-Pregabalin EP Impurity A (CAS 181289-22-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C8H15NO and a molecular weight of 141.21 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C8H15NO, (R)-Pregabalin EP Impurity A contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 141.21 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (R)-Pregabalin EP Impurity A 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.
