Chemical Structure

Dexmedetomidine Impurity 38 hydrochloride CAS CATO-C4X-123079 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 236.74 g/mol gives Dexmedetomidine Impurity 38 hydrochloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Dexmedetomidine Impurity 38 hydrochloride (CAS CATO-C4X-123079, C13H16N2HCl) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, Dexmedetomidine Impurity 38 hydrochloride is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 236.74 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
