Loxoprofen Impurity 104 (CAS 56607-18-2) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C11H13BrO2 and a molecular weight of 257.12 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C11H13BrO2, Loxoprofen Impurity 104 contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 257.12 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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.
