Chemical Structure

Proparacaine Impurity 5 DiHCl CAS 2731368-99-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 346.85 g/mol gives Proparacaine Impurity 5 DiHCl distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Proparacaine Impurity 5 DiHCl (CAS 2731368-99-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C16H26N2O4HCl and a molecular weight of 346.85 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Proparacaine Impurity 5 DiHCl (C16H26N2O4HCl) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

CATO manufactures Proparacaine Impurity 5 DiHCl 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.
