Chemical Structure

Naproxen EP Impurity O CAS 2471-70-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 202.21 g/mol gives Naproxen EP Impurity O distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Naproxen EP Impurity O (CAS 2471-70-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C12H10O3 and a molecular weight of 202.21 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Naproxen EP Impurity O (C12H10O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Naproxen EP Impurity O meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
