Chemical Structure

Acipimox Impurity 6 CAS 32046-09-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 140.10 g/mol gives Acipimox Impurity 6 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Acipimox Impurity 6 (CAS 32046-09-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C5H4N2O3, MW 140.10 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Acipimox Impurity 6 (C5H4N2O3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide 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.

CATO manufactures Acipimox Impurity 6 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.
