Tricyclo[8.2.2.24,7]hexadeca-4,6,10,12,13,15-hexaene-5-carboxaldehyde (CAS 729-30-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C17H16O and a molecular weight of 236.31 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C17H16O, Tricyclo[8.2.2.24,7]hexadeca-4,6,10,12,13,15-hexaene-5-carboxaldehyde contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 236.31 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
