CATO manufactures Prilocaine Impurity 45 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.
CATO supplies Prilocaine Impurity 45 (CAS CATO-C4X-193445), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C14H20N2OHCl, MW 268.79 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Based on its molecular formula C14H20N2OHCl, Prilocaine Impurity 45 contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 268.79 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
