Chemical Structure

Norepinephrine Impurity 15 CAS 29477-55-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Norepinephrine Impurity 15 is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Norepinephrine Impurity 15 (CAS 29477-55-2) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6O4 and a molecular weight of 166.13 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C8H6O4, Norepinephrine Impurity 15 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 166.13 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), Norepinephrine Impurity 15 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.
