Pheniramine Impurity 2 CAS 67168-93-8 chemical structure

Description

Pheniramine Impurity 2 (CAS 67168-93-8) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C9H10Cl2 and a molecular weight of 189.08 g/mol.

Owing to chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Pheniramine Impurity 2 is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 189.08 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 Pheniramine Impurity 2 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.
