Chemical Structure

methyl cholate 3-acetate CAS 7443-91-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of methyl cholate 3-acetate is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

methyl cholate 3-acetate (CAS 7443-91-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C27H44O6 and a molecular weight of 464.63 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C27H44O6, methyl cholate 3-acetate 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 464.63 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures methyl cholate 3-acetate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
