Chemical Structure

Epinephrine Impurity 8 HCl (Mixture of Diastereomers) CAS 3198-07-0 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Epinephrine Impurity 8 HCl (Mixture of Diastereomers) (C10H15NO3HCl) is characterized by an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies Epinephrine Impurity 8 HCl (Mixture of Diastereomers) (CAS 3198-07-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C10H15NO3HCl, MW 233.69 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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.
