CATO supplies Famotidine Impurity 38 (CAS 24423-98-1), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C3H5ClO2, MW 108.52 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Based on its molecular formula C3H5ClO2, Famotidine Impurity 38 contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 108.52 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.
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 Famotidine Impurity 38 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.
