Chemical Structure

Loratadine CAS 79794-75-5 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Loratadine 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.

Loratadine (CAS 79794-75-5), molecular formula C22H23ClN2O2 and molecular weight 382.88 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Loratadine is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 382.88 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
