Chemical Structure

Ambroxol Hydrochloride EP Impurity B CAS CATO-C4X-108546 chemical structure

Description

Ambroxol Hydrochloride EP Impurity B (CAS CATO-C4X-108546) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C14H18Br2N2O and a molecular weight of 390.11 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Ambroxol Hydrochloride EP Impurity B (C14H18Br2N2O) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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 Ambroxol Hydrochloride EP Impurity B 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.
