Chemical Structure

D-Thyroxine CAS 51-49-0 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 D-Thyroxine.

D-Thyroxine (CAS 51-49-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H11I4NO4 and a molecular weight of 776.87 g/mol.

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, D-Thyroxine is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 776.87 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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 D-Thyroxine 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.
