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.
Betahistine Impurity 18 (CAS 24028-46-4) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C8H20N4 and a molecular weight of 172.27 g/mol.
Owing to an organic framework, Betahistine Impurity 18 is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 172.27 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.
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.
