Chemical Structure

Hydrocortisone 21-Hemisuccinate CAS 2203-97-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Hydrocortisone 21-Hemisuccinate.

Hydrocortisone 21-Hemisuccinate (CAS 2203-97-6), molecular formula C25H34O8 and molecular weight 462.53 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Hydrocortisone 21-Hemisuccinate (C25H34O8) is characterized by a flavonoid core, 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).

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.

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.
