Chemical Structure

Benzyl Alcohol Impurity 10 CAS 539-30-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Benzyl Alcohol Impurity 10 is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Benzyl Alcohol Impurity 10 (CAS 539-30-0, C9H12O) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Benzyl Alcohol Impurity 10 is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 136.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Benzyl Alcohol Impurity 10 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
