Chemical Structure

Tapentadol Impurity 1 CAS 2645-08-1 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Tapentadol Impurity 1 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.

Tapentadol Impurity 1 (CAS 2645-08-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C15H22N4O3HCl and a molecular weight of 342.82 g/mol.

Structurally, Tapentadol Impurity 1 (C15H22N4O3HCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 342.82 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.
