Chemical Structure

Articaine impurity 23 CAS 2689-70-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Articaine impurity 23 is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Articaine impurity 23 (CAS 2689-70-5) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C7H10O3S and a molecular weight of 174.22 g/mol.

Articaine impurity 23 (C7H10O3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

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.
