Chemical Structure

3β-Hydroxyestra-5,7,9-trien-17-one CAS 567-12-4 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3β-Hydroxyestra-5,7,9-trien-17-one 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.

CATO supplies 3β-Hydroxyestra-5,7,9-trien-17-one (CAS 567-12-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H22O2, MW 270.37 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3β-Hydroxyestra-5,7,9-trien-17-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 270.37 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
