Chemical Structure

Tamsulosin Impurity 30 CAS 589-10-6 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies Tamsulosin Impurity 30 (CAS 589-10-6), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C8H9BrO, MW 201.06 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Tamsulosin Impurity 30 (C8H9BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 201.06 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Tamsulosin Impurity 30 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.
