Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 5-CHOLESTEN-3β-OL CHLOROACETATE is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 463.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
CATO supplies 5-CHOLESTEN-3β-OL CHLOROACETATE (CAS 3464-50-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C29H47ClO2, MW 463.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
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), 5-CHOLESTEN-3β-OL CHLOROACETATE 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.
