Chemical Structure

4-PREGNEN-17, 20α, 21-TRIOL-3-ONE CAS 3946-10-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-PREGNEN-17, 20α, 21-TRIOL-3-ONE is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-PREGNEN-17, 20α, 21-TRIOL-3-ONE (CAS 3946-10-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C21H32O4 and a molecular weight of 348.48 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 4-PREGNEN-17, 20α, 21-TRIOL-3-ONE (C21H32O4) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

CATO manufactures 4-PREGNEN-17, 20α, 21-TRIOL-3-ONE 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.
