Struggling to develop the method of NDSRI N-Nitroso meglumine in Telmisartan Tablets. Impurity shows very notorious behavior. Any one having methods or feed back in regards please let me know.
@DPandey Thanks for reaching out to the community … Can you fill in additional details, what have you tried? What did not work? What progress have you made so far?
Dear Naiffer, thanks.
I am facing challenge in regards inconsistency of impurity in terms of area response. Used various diluent but n-Nitroso meglumine area response fluctuation observing. Right now using Sugar HPLC column. Your expert opinion will help me out.
Hello @DPandey, Greetings from Doctors’ Analytical Labs, India.
Try using the below column and mobile phase composition
Kinetix biphenyl
250*4.6, 5 micron
M.P. A
0.1 % Acetiic acid in water
M.P. B
0.1% Acetic acid in acetonitrile
Hello Dear All, We want to order N-Nitroso Meglumine. But N-nitroso meglumine has two Cas numbers. Which one is correct? Can you please help me?
https://www.simsonpharma.com/product/n-nitroso-meglumine (CAS No: 10356-92-0)
CAS No : 62137-31-9 | Product Name : N-Nitroso-Meglumine | Pharmaffiliates (CAS No: 62137-31-9)
CAS No: 62137-31-9 is correct according to EMA. But what are the differences?
It appears that CAS # 62137-31-9 corresponds to the racemic product. Check out TLC product page:

So is EMA asking us to analyze the racemic standard? In this case, what I understand is that EMA is asking us not to separate this mixture and report this racemic mixture as a single impurity, not to report the individual isomers in the racemic mixture.
Am I right about this?
Most of the Nitrosamines reported Cis and anti confirmer and impurity standard contains sum of the both peaks, so no need to procure separate impurity or separation of both peak during method development or to report separately.

Unless using a chiral column, the enantiomers are not separated in Nitrosamine LC-MS analysis and also they are not considered having different toxicities, as I know. Therefore, for the std it is not important if it is racemic or a pure enantiomer.
Additionally, as @DPandey mentions above, asymmetrical nitrosamines can exist in two different stable forms, rotamers, distinguishable by several analytical methods - due to the partial double bond character of the N–N bond. Therefore, it is not unusual to see two chromatographic peaks for N-Nitrosamines, regardless of the existence or not of optical isomers.
