Chemical Structure

17alpha-Hydroxy-yohimban-16alpha-carboxylic Acid Methyl Ester CAS 146-48-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 354.44 g/mol gives 17alpha-Hydroxy-yohimban-16alpha-carboxylic Acid Methyl Ester distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 17alpha-Hydroxy-yohimban-16alpha-carboxylic Acid Methyl Ester (CAS 146-48-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C21H26N2O3, MW 354.44 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 17alpha-Hydroxy-yohimban-16alpha-carboxylic Acid Methyl Ester (C21H26N2O3) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 17alpha-Hydroxy-yohimban-16alpha-carboxylic Acid Methyl Ester 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.
