The occurrence of 5α-ANDROSTAN-3α, 17β-DIOL 3-ACETATE is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 5α-ANDROSTAN-3α, 17β-DIOL 3-ACETATE (CAS 1600-76-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C21H34O3, MW 334.49 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 5α-ANDROSTAN-3α, 17β-DIOL 3-ACETATE is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 334.49 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
