Chemical Structure

Bupropion HCl CAS 31677-93-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Bupropion HCl is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Bupropion HCl (CAS 31677-93-7), molecular formula C13H18ClNOHCl and molecular weight 276.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Bupropion HCl is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 276.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures Bupropion HCl 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.
