Chemical Structure

Alanyl Glutamine Impurity 16 CAS 672284-92-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Alanyl Glutamine Impurity 16 is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Alanyl Glutamine Impurity 16 (CAS 672284-92-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C9H17N3O4, MW 231.25 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Alanyl Glutamine Impurity 16 (C9H17N3O4) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
