(6aS)-Dextromethorphan Impurity 9 CAS CATO-C4X-11579 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (6aS)-Dextromethorphan Impurity 9.

(6aS)-Dextromethorphan Impurity 9 (CAS CATO-C4X-11579) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C18H25NO and a molecular weight of 271.40 g/mol.

Structurally, (6aS)-Dextromethorphan Impurity 9 (C18H25NO) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 271.40 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
