3-[(3as,6s,7s,9as,9bs)-7-isopropenyl-3a,6,9b-trimethyl-3-oxo-2,3, 3a,4,6,7,8,9,9a,9b-decahydro-1h-cyclopenta[a]naphthalen-6-yl]prop Anoic Acid 659738-08-6 (CAS 659738-08-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C22H32O3 and a molecular weight of 344.49 g/mol.
Structurally, 3-[(3as,6s,7s,9as,9bs)-7-isopropenyl-3a,6,9b-trimethyl-3-oxo-2,3, 3a,4,6,7,8,9,9a,9b-decahydro-1h-cyclopenta[a]naphthalen-6-yl]prop Anoic Acid 659738-08-6 (C22H32O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 344.49 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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.
