Chemical Structure

(5β)-21-(Acetoxy)pregnane-3,20-dione CAS 2402-25-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

(5β)-21-(Acetoxy)pregnane-3,20-dione (CAS 2402-25-7), molecular formula C23H34O4 and molecular weight 374.51 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, (5β)-21-(Acetoxy)pregnane-3,20-dione (C23H34O4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 374.51 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).

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