Chemical Structure

Ketoprofen Impurity 115 CAS 72235-46-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ketoprofen Impurity 115 is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Ketoprofen Impurity 115 (CAS 72235-46-2, C14H10Br2O) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Ketoprofen Impurity 115 (C14H10Br2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

CATO manufactures Ketoprofen Impurity 115 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.
