Chemical Structure

Captopril Impurity 8 CAS 74345-73-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Captopril Impurity 8.

Captopril Impurity 8 (CAS 74345-73-6) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C6H9ClO2S and a molecular weight of 180.65 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Captopril Impurity 8 is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 180.65 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.

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.

CATO manufactures Captopril Impurity 8 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.
