Chemical Structure

Brexpiprazole Impurity 162 CAS CATO-C4X-1131162 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 296.16 g/mol gives Brexpiprazole Impurity 162 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Brexpiprazole Impurity 162 (CAS CATO-C4X-1131162) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C13H14BrNO2 and a molecular weight of 296.16 g/mol.

Structurally, Brexpiprazole Impurity 162 (C13H14BrNO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 296.16 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
