Chemical Structure

Ramelteon Impurity N39 CAS 196597-69-0 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Ramelteon Impurity N39 (C11H9BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Ramelteon Impurity N39 (CAS 196597-69-0) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C11H9BrO2 and a molecular weight of 253.09 g/mol.

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.

CATO manufactures Ramelteon Impurity N39 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
