Chemical Structure

Levetiracetam Impurity 41 CAS CATO-C4X-106741 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 224.69 g/mol gives Levetiracetam Impurity 41 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Levetiracetam Impurity 41 (CAS CATO-C4X-106741, C8H16N2O3HCl) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Structurally, Levetiracetam Impurity 41 (C8H16N2O3HCl) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 224.69 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
