MOLECULAR FORMULA

Product Description and Specifications

S.No.	Tests	Specifications
1	Description	White crystals, commonly tabular or needle-like or white, crystalline powder. Is odorless or has a faint odor. Is stable in the dry air: in moist air it gradually hydrolyzes to salicylic and acetic acids.
2	Solubility.	Freely soluble in alcohol; soluble in chloroform and in ether; sparingly soluble in absolute ether; Slightly soluble in water.
3	Identification
	A by HPLC	The RT of the major peak of the sample solution corresponds to that of the standard solution as obtained in the Assay
	B by IR Spectroscopy	The IR spectrum of the sample exhibits maxima only at the same wave numbers as that of a similar preparation of Aspirin WRS.
4	Assay by HPLC (% w/w, on dried basis)	Not less than 98.0 and Not more than 102.0
5	Residue on ignition (% w/w)	Not more than 0.05
6	Chloride (%w/w)	Not more than 0.014
7	Sulfate (%w/w)	Not more than 0.04
8	Organic Impurities by HPLC (% w/w)
	Impurity A- 4-Hydroxybenzoic acid	Not more than 0.15
	Impurity B- 4-Hydroxyisophthalic acid	Not more than 0.15
