Chemical Structure

Butylphthalide Impurity 56 CAS 261783-87-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Butylphthalide Impurity 56 (CAS 261783-87-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C12H14O2, MW 190.24 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Based on its molecular formula C12H14O2, Butylphthalide Impurity 56 contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 190.24 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), Butylphthalide Impurity 56 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.
