Chemical Structure

Pyrroloquinoline quinone Impurity 1 CAS 80721-47-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Pyrroloquinoline quinone Impurity 1 is closely related to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Pyrroloquinoline quinone Impurity 1 (CAS 80721-47-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H14N2O8, MW 386.31 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Pyrroloquinoline quinone Impurity 1 (C18H14N2O8) contains a flavonoid core, 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.

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.

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.
