The occurrence of Sertraline Impurity 29 is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies Sertraline Impurity 29 (CAS 36159-73-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C16H13ClO, MW 256.73 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
The molecular framework of Sertraline Impurity 29 (C16H13ClO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. 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 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.
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.
