Salbutamol EP Impurity O TFA salt (CAS 2387728-91-6(Free Base)) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C15H25NO3C2HF3O2 and a molecular weight of 381.39 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C15H25NO3C2HF3O2, Salbutamol EP Impurity O TFA salt contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 381.39 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
