Vortioxetine Impurity 120 HCl CAS 508233-76-9(free base) chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Vortioxetine Impurity 120 HCl (CAS 508233-76-9(free base)), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C18H22N2SHCl, MW 334.91 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution, Vortioxetine Impurity 120 HCl is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 334.91 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
