Chemical Structure

Phenylephrine Impurity 14 CAS 939-38-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 203.67 g/mol gives Phenylephrine Impurity 14 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Phenylephrine Impurity 14 (CAS 939-38-8) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C9H13NO2HCl and a molecular weight of 203.67 g/mol.

Phenylephrine Impurity 14 (C9H13NO2HCl) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Phenylephrine Impurity 14 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.
