Chemical Structure

Carbidopa EP Impurity A Sesquihydrate CAS 41372-08-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Carbidopa EP Impurity A Sesquihydrate is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Carbidopa EP Impurity A Sesquihydrate (CAS 41372-08-1, C10H13NO4H2O) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Carbidopa EP Impurity A Sesquihydrate (C10H13NO4H2O) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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 Carbidopa EP Impurity A Sesquihydrate 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.
