As a certified reference material (CRM), Phenoxybenzamine Impurity 4 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.
CATO supplies Phenoxybenzamine Impurity 4 (CAS 76805-26-0), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C18H24N2O, MW 284.40 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Phenoxybenzamine Impurity 4 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 284.40 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
