Chemical Structure

Cholest-5-ene CAS 570-74-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Cholest-5-ene is closely related to an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Cholest-5-ene (CAS 570-74-1), molecular formula C27H46 and molecular weight 370.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Cholest-5-ene (C27H46) is characterized by an aromatic ring system. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), Cholest-5-ene 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.
