Chemical Structure

Benzhexol Impurity 1 CAS 90548-89-3 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C20H30N2O, Benzhexol Impurity 1 contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 314.47 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

CATO supplies Benzhexol Impurity 1 (CAS 90548-89-3), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C20H30N2O, MW 314.47 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

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.

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.
