Folic Acid Impurity 1, chemically known as 6-Hydroxypurine, is a critical reference standard used in the pharmaceutical industry for the identification and quantification of degradation products during the synthesis of folic acid. Its molecular formula is C5H4N4O (CAS No. 59-27-8), typically derived via controlled hydrolysis or oxidative pathways.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent photodegradation. Personnel must wear appropriate PPE including gloves and safety goggles due to potential irritant properties. Strict adherence to local regulations regarding the handling of chemical reference standards is mandatory.
