Chemical Structure

N-Nitroso Pseudoephedrine (N-Nitroso Ephedrine HCl EP Impurity B) CAS 1850-88-0 chemical structure

Description

N-Nitroso Pseudoephedrine (N-Nitroso Ephedrine HCl EP Impurity B) (CAS 1850-88-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H14N2O2 and a molecular weight of 194.23 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, N-Nitroso Pseudoephedrine (N-Nitroso Ephedrine HCl EP Impurity B) is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 194.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), N-Nitroso Pseudoephedrine (N-Nitroso Ephedrine HCl 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.
