Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 2-Hydroxymethyl-17α-methylandrostadiene-11α,17β-diol-3-one is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 2-Hydroxymethyl-17α-methylandrostadiene-11α,17β-diol-3-one (CAS 59400-02-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C21H30O4, MW 346.46 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
2-Hydroxymethyl-17α-methylandrostadiene-11α,17β-diol-3-one (C21H30O4) contains a flavonoid core, 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. 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), 2-Hydroxymethyl-17α-methylandrostadiene-11α,17β-diol-3-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.
