CATO supplies (4AS,5S,7S,8R,8aS)-2,3-dimethoxy-2,3,5-trimethyl-7-(phenylthio)hexahydro-5H-pyrano[3,4-b][1,4]dioxin-8-ol (CAS 202824-32-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H26O6S, MW 370.46 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of (4AS,5S,7S,8R,8aS)-2,3-dimethoxy-2,3,5-trimethyl-7-(phenylthio)hexahydro-5H-pyrano[3,4-b][1,4]dioxin-8-ol (C18H26O6S) is characterized by a steroid core, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional 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).
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
