Chemical Structure

Bromfenac Impurity 18 CAS CATO-C4X-200218 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 369.04 g/mol gives Bromfenac Impurity 18 distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Bromfenac Impurity 18 (CAS CATO-C4X-200218), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C15H8BrCl2NO, MW 369.04 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, Bromfenac Impurity 18 (C15H8BrCl2NO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 369.04 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.

CATO manufactures Bromfenac Impurity 18 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.
