Chemical Structure

Ketorolac Impurity 18 CAS CATO-C4X-166918 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 224.25 g/mol gives Ketorolac Impurity 18 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Ketorolac Impurity 18 (CAS CATO-C4X-166918, C8H20N2O5) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Ketorolac Impurity 18 (C8H20N2O5) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ketorolac Impurity 18 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.
