Chemical Structure

Nicorandil Impurity 3 DiHCl(Nicorandil EP Impurity C DiHCl) CAS 87330-70-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Nicorandil Impurity 3 DiHCl(Nicorandil EP Impurity C DiHCl) is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Nicorandil Impurity 3 DiHCl(Nicorandil EP Impurity C DiHCl) (CAS 87330-70-9), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C8H10N2O2HCl, MW 202.64 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Nicorandil Impurity 3 DiHCl(Nicorandil EP Impurity C DiHCl) is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 202.64 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

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.
