Chemical Structure

Valproate Impurity 64 CAS CATO-C4X-116664 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Valproate Impurity 64 (CAS CATO-C4X-116664), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C13H23NO2, MW 225.33 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Valproate Impurity 64 (C13H23NO2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 225.33 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.
