Chemical Structure

3 β-Hydroxypregna-5,14-dien-29-one CAS 22042-13-3 chemical structure

Description

3 β-Hydroxypregna-5,14-dien-29-one (CAS 22042-13-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C21H30O2 and a molecular weight of 314.46 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3 β-Hydroxypregna-5,14-dien-29-one (C21H30O2) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3 β-Hydroxypregna-5,14-dien-29-one 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.
