Chemical Structure

Methylprednisolone 21-Propionate CAS 138804-88-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methylprednisolone 21-Propionate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

Methylprednisolone 21-Propionate (CAS 138804-88-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C25H34O6 and a molecular weight of 430.53 g/mol.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Methylprednisolone 21-Propionate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 430.53 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
