Dexamethasone 21-Iodide CAS 2029-18-7 chemical structure

Description

Dexamethasone 21-Iodide (CAS 2029-18-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C22H28FIO4 and a molecular weight of 502.36 g/mol.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/iodine substitution, Dexamethasone 21-Iodide is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 502.36 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).

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), Dexamethasone 21-Iodide 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.
