Chemical Structure

DL-Lysine EP Impurity I CAS CATO-C4X-221128 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies DL-Lysine EP Impurity I (CAS CATO-C4X-221128), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C15H20N2O5, MW 308.33 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Structurally, DL-Lysine EP Impurity I (C15H20N2O5) contains a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 308.33 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a certified reference material (CRM), DL-Lysine EP Impurity I 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.
