Chemical Structure

Gabapentin Impurity 11 CAS 478296-72-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Gabapentin Impurity 11 is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Gabapentin Impurity 11 (CAS 478296-72-9) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C16H27NO6 and a molecular weight of 329.39 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C16H27NO6, Gabapentin Impurity 11 contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 329.39 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures Gabapentin Impurity 11 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.
