Chemical Structure

(5S)​-​Isomethadone CAS 561-10-4 chemical structure

Description

(5S)​-​Isomethadone (CAS 561-10-4), molecular formula C21H27NO and molecular weight 309.45 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (5S)​-​Isomethadone (C21H27NO) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (5S)​-​Isomethadone 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.
