Chemical Structure

Folic Acid Impurity 61 CAS 99778-32-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Folic Acid Impurity 61 is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Folic Acid Impurity 61 (CAS 99778-32-2), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C7H12N6O, MW 196.21 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

The molecular framework of Folic Acid Impurity 61 (C7H12N6O) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures Folic Acid Impurity 61 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.
