Noscapine impurity 3 CAS 82-54-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Noscapine impurity 3 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.

CATO supplies Noscapine impurity 3 (CAS 82-54-2), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C12H15NO4, MW 237.25 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Noscapine impurity 3 (C12H15NO4) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
