Method of Analysis of L-4-Nitrophenylalanine Methyl Ester HCl (H-Phe(4-NO2)-OMe·HCl) (CAS: 17193-40-7)
Description: Place about 2 g of sample in a clean and dry petri-dish and observe the appearance of sample. Reporting: Report the observation
Identificaiton: Compare the retention time of the major peak in the chromatogram of the test preparation with the retention time of the major peak in the chromatogram of system suitability praparation as obtained in chromatographic purity by HPLC.
Loss on Drying: Dry a glass-stoppered, shallow weighing bottle at 105±2℃ for 30 minutes. Allow it to cool to room temperature in a desciccator. Weigh accurately the weighing bottle with stopper and record the weight (W1). Transfer about 1 to 2g accurately weighed quantity of test substance into the weighing bottle. By gentle, sidewise shaking, distribute the test specimen as evenly as practicable to a depth of about 5 mm. Weigh the loaded weighing bottle and record the weight (W2). Place the loaded bottle in the drying oven, removing the stopper and leaving it also in the chamber. Dry the test sample at 105±2℃ for 3 hours. Upon opening the chamber, close the bottle promptly, and allowe it to come to room temperature in a desiccator. Weigh accurately the weighing bottle with stopper and recoed the weight (W3). Calculate the percentage loss on drying of the sample by using following formula:
Calculation Loss on drying (% w/w)= (W2-W3) ÷ (W2-W1) x 100

L-4-Nitrophenylalanine Methyl Ester HCl (H-Phe(4-NO2)-OMe·HCl) (CAS: 17193-40-7) is an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceutical compounds. L-4-Nitrophenylalanine Methyl Ester HCl can be used for the preparation of Matijing-Su derivatives as potent anti-HBV agents. L-4-Nitrophenylalanine Methyl Ester HCl can be used as a pharmaceutical intermediate of Zolmitriptan (CAS: 139264-17-8). Zolmitriptan is a selective serotonin receptor agonist of the 1B and 1D subtypes. It is mainly used in the acute treatment of migraine attacks with or without aura and cluster headaches. Zolmitriptan takes effect through binding to human 5-HT1Band 5-HT1Dreceptors, leading to cranial blood vessel constriction and the release of sensory neuropeptides through nerve endings in the trigeminal system.
