N- [4- [[(2-Amino-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-6- pteridinyl) methyl]amino]benzoyl]-L-glutamic Acid;N-[p-[[(2-Amino-4-hydroxy-6-pteridinyl)methyl]amino]benzoyl]glutamic Acid; Pteroylglutamic Acid.
C19H19N7O6 --- Formula wt 441.40 --- CAS: [59-30-3]
DESCRIPTION
Folic Acid occurs as yellow or yellow-orange crystals or crystalline powder. About 1.6 mg dissolves in 1 mL of water. It is insoluble in acetone, in alcohol, in chloroform, and in ether, but dissolves in solutions of alkali hydroxides and carbonates. The pH of a suspension of 1 g in 10 mL of water is between 4.0 and 4.8.
Function: Nutrient.
REQUIREMENTS
Identification: The ultraviolet absorption spectrum of a 1:100,000 aqueous solution in 1:250 sodium hydroxide solution exhibits maxima and minima at the same wavelengths as those of a similar solution of USP Folic Acid Reference Standard, concomitantly measured. The ratio A256/A365 is between 2.80 and 3.00.
Assay: Not less than 95.0% and not more than 102.0% of C19H19N7O6, calculated on the anhydrous basis.
Lead: Not more than 2 mg/kg.
Residue on Ignition: Not more than 0.3%.
Water: Not more than 8.5%.
Folic Acid is also available as per BP Ph Eur monograph.
