Acebutolol EP Impurity C(CAS: 40188-45-2)

Acebutolol EP Impurity C is a chemical compound with CAS number 40188-45-2, a byproduct of the synthesis of acebutolol. It is an off-white to pale yellow powder with a molecular weight of approximately 418.49. This impurity is characterized by its bitter taste and poor solubility in water.

Acebutolol EP Impurity C is primarily used in pharmaceutical research as a reference material for impurity testing and quality control in the development of acebutolol and related beta-blocker drugs. It is not used in clinical applications due to its impurity status.

Acebutolol EP Impurity C is generally considered safe for laboratory use under controlled conditions. However, it should be handled with care, and appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) should be worn. Exposure to this impurity should be minimized, and spills should be cleaned up promptly following safety guidelines.

Acebutolol EP Impurity C should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. It should be kept in a tightly sealed container to prevent moisture absorption. Optimal storage conditions are between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F), with relative humidity below 60%. The container should be protected from physical damage and kept out of reach of children and unauthorized persons.
