Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 17B(H),21a(H)-30-Norhopane.
CATO supplies 17B(H),21a(H)-30-Norhopane (CAS 3258-87-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C29H50, MW 398.71 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
17B(H),21a(H)-30-Norhopane (C29H50) contains an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
