Chemical Structure

Epinephrine /Adrenaline Impurity 127 CAS CATO-C4X-1849127 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Epinephrine /Adrenaline Impurity 127 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.

CATO supplies Epinephrine /Adrenaline Impurity 127 (CAS CATO-C4X-1849127), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C11H16N2O5, MW 256.26 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Epinephrine /Adrenaline Impurity 127 is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 256.26 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.

CATO manufactures Epinephrine /Adrenaline Impurity 127 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.
