Chemical Structure

Terbutaline EP Impurity A CAS 99-10-5 chemical structure

Description

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Terbutaline EP Impurity A (CAS 99-10-5, C7H6O4) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Terbutaline EP Impurity A is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 154.12 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).

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.

CATO manufactures Terbutaline EP Impurity A 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.
