Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 305.13 g/mol gives Carbidopa EP Impurity J distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Carbidopa EP Impurity J (CAS 43197-33-7) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C10H13BrN2O4 and a molecular weight of 305.13 g/mol.
Structurally, Carbidopa EP Impurity J (C10H13BrN2O4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 305.13 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).
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 Carbidopa EP Impurity J 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.
