Chemical Structure

Ibuprofen EP Impurity B Sodium CAS CATO-C4X-108236 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 228.26 g/mol gives Ibuprofen EP Impurity B Sodium distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Ibuprofen EP Impurity B Sodium (CAS CATO-C4X-108236, C13H17NaO2) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Based on its molecular formula C13H17NaO2, Ibuprofen EP Impurity B Sodium contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 228.26 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 Ibuprofen EP Impurity B Sodium 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.
