Chemical Structure

Brimonidine EP Impurity B CAS 50358-63-9 chemical structure

Description

Brimonidine EP Impurity B (C8H6BrN3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO supplies Brimonidine EP Impurity B (CAS 50358-63-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C8H6BrN3, MW 224.06 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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 Brimonidine EP Impurity B 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.
