The occurrence of 6-Deoxycodeine (1.0mg/ml in Acetonitrile) is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
6-Deoxycodeine (1.0mg/ml in Acetonitrile) (CAS 5121-66-4), molecular formula C18H21NO2 and molecular weight 283.36 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
6-Deoxycodeine (1.0mg/ml in Acetonitrile) (C18H21NO2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
