Chemical Structure

Calcitriol CAS 32222-06-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 416.64 g/mol gives Calcitriol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Calcitriol (CAS 32222-06-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C27H44O3 and a molecular weight of 416.64 g/mol.

Calcitriol (C27H44O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

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.
