Isoflurane EP Impurity B CAS 1885-48-9

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Isoflurane EP Impurity B.

CATO supplies Isoflurane EP Impurity B (CAS 1885-48-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C3H3F5O, MW 150.05 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Isoflurane EP Impurity B (C3H3F5O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
