Chemical Structure

Ipratropium Impurity 38 CAS 40195-49-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ipratropium Impurity 38 is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ipratropium Impurity 38 (CAS 40195-49-1) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C17H16O3 and a molecular weight of 268.31 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ipratropium Impurity 38 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 268.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.

CATO manufactures Ipratropium Impurity 38 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.
