Chemical Structure

Valproic Acid Impurity 74 CAS 87113-24-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Valproic Acid Impurity 74 is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Valproic Acid Impurity 74 (CAS 87113-24-4), molecular formula C22H16N2O and molecular weight 324.38 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Valproic Acid Impurity 74 (C22H16N2O) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 16.0, corresponding to approximately 16 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 324.38 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Valproic Acid Impurity 74 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.
