Chemical Structure

Bupropion Impurity 14 CAS CATO-C4X-120314 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 Bupropion Impurity 14.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Bupropion Impurity 14 (CAS CATO-C4X-120314, C9H7Br2ClO) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Bupropion Impurity 14 is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 326.41 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Bupropion Impurity 14 meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
