Chemical Structure

21-Dehydro Betamethasone CAS 61558-12-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 21-Dehydro Betamethasone (CAS 61558-12-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C22H27FO5, MW 390.45 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

21-Dehydro Betamethasone (C22H27FO5) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 21-Dehydro Betamethasone 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.
