Chemical Structure

Nikethamide Impurity 2 CAS 20165-96-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Nikethamide Impurity 2 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO supplies Nikethamide Impurity 2 (CAS 20165-96-2), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C10H14N2O2, MW 194.23 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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.

CATO manufactures Nikethamide Impurity 2 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.
