Chemical Structure

Ephedrine Hydrochloride CAS 50-98-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Ephedrine Hydrochloride (CAS 50-98-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H15NOHCl, MW 201.69 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ephedrine Hydrochloride (C10H15NOHCl) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 201.69 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures Ephedrine Hydrochloride 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.
