Chemical Structure

Dexmedetomidine Impurity 38 CAS CATO-C4X-123038 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, Dexmedetomidine Impurity 38 is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 200.28 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Dexmedetomidine Impurity 38 (CAS CATO-C4X-123038) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C13H16N2 and a molecular weight of 200.28 g/mol.

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.

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.
