Metformin Impurity 17 CAS 36897-89-9 chemical structure

Description

Metformin Impurity 17 (CAS 36897-89-9) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C2H6N4OH3O4P and a molecular weight of 200.09 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Metformin Impurity 17 (C2H6N4OH3O4P) is characterized by an amide group, a phosphate ester group, a carboxylic acid group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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 Metformin Impurity 17 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.
