About N-Nitroso Metoprolol

N-Nitroso Metoprolol is a nitrosamine impurity of Metoprolol carrying the CAS registry number 138768-62-4 with a typical assay of 97%. Its molecular formula is C15H24N2O4 and its molecular weight is 296.36 g/mol. The IUPAC name is N-[2-hydroxy-3-[4-(2-methoxyethyl)phenoxy]propyl]-N-propan-2-ylnitrous amide. Alternative names: N-Nitrosometoprolol and N-nitroso-metoprolol.

It is supplied as a solid. Store the standard in its sealed vial, protected from light and moisture, and follow the storage condition printed on the COA. Under GHS it is labelled “Warning”, so handle it with suitable PPE and consult the SDS.

It is used as a reference standard for trace-level detection and quantitation of nitrosamine impurities by LC-MS/MS or GC-MS, supporting nitrosamine risk assessments for Metoprolol, method validation (AMV) and regulatory filings. Buyers come mainly from pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

We offer N-Nitroso Metoprolol in 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg packs with a batch-specific COA, and ship to customers worldwide. Stock is available for quick dispatch.
