Chemical Structure

6-Deoxo-28-norcastasterone CAS 169624-26-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 6-Deoxo-28-norcastasterone (CAS 169624-26-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C27H48O4, MW 436.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 6-Deoxo-28-norcastasterone is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 436.67 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Deoxo-28-norcastasterone 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.
