Chemical Structure

Phenylephrine Impurity 73 CAS CATO-C4X-146773 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Phenylephrine Impurity 73 is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Phenylephrine Impurity 73 (CAS CATO-C4X-146773) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C8H11NO2 and a molecular weight of 153.18 g/mol.

Phenylephrine Impurity 73 (C8H11NO2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures Phenylephrine Impurity 73 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
