Aminolevulinic Acid Impurity 6 HCl (CAS CATO-C4X-21216) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C5H8N2O4HCl and a molecular weight of 196.59 g/mol.
Structurally, Aminolevulinic Acid Impurity 6 HCl (C5H8N2O4HCl) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 196.59 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
