Chemical Structure

Cyproheptadine EP Impurity C Hydrochloride CAS 4046-24-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 341.88 g/mol gives Cyproheptadine EP Impurity C Hydrochloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Cyproheptadine EP Impurity C Hydrochloride (CAS 4046-24-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C21H23NOHCl and a molecular weight of 341.88 g/mol.

Cyproheptadine EP Impurity C Hydrochloride (C21H23NOHCl) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Cyproheptadine EP Impurity C Hydrochloride meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
