Chemical Structure

Minoxidil Impurity 31 CAS 35139-68-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 195.01 g/mol gives Minoxidil Impurity 31 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Minoxidil Impurity 31 (CAS 35139-68-5, C4H4Cl2N4O) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Minoxidil Impurity 31 (C4H4Cl2N4O) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
