Chemical Structure

Cyproheptadine EP Impurity C CAS 3967-32-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 305.41 g/mol gives Cyproheptadine EP Impurity C distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Cyproheptadine EP Impurity C (CAS 3967-32-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C21H23NO and a molecular weight of 305.41 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Cyproheptadine EP Impurity C (C21H23NO) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. 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.

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.
