Chemical Structure

rac-Delta-8,9-Dehydro Estrone CAS 2911-90-2 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 rac-Delta-8,9-Dehydro Estrone.

CATO supplies rac-Delta-8,9-Dehydro Estrone (CAS 2911-90-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H20O2, MW 268.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, rac-Delta-8,9-Dehydro Estrone (C18H20O2) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 268.35 g/mol, it falls into the medium-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).

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.

CATO manufactures rac-Delta-8,9-Dehydro Estrone under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
