Abstract

Venlafaxine hydrochloride is a phenyl ethylamine derivative, used for the treatment of depression. During the process development of venlafaxine hydrochloride, six process- related potential impurities were detected in high-performance liquid chromatography. All these impurities were identified, synthesized, and subsequently characterized by their respective spectral data (IR, mass, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR) as described in this article.
