Chemical Structure

(3S)-Tryptophan EP Impurity I (Mixture of Diastereomers) CAS 191279-37-5 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies (3S)-Tryptophan EP Impurity I (Mixture of Diastereomers) (CAS 191279-37-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C13H14N2O2, MW 230.26 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of (3S)-Tryptophan EP Impurity I (Mixture of Diastereomers) (C13H14N2O2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
