Description

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.

24-Epicastasterone 80736-41-0 BP 214 Castasterone Ergostan-6-one, 2,3,22,23-tetrahydroxy-, (2alpha,3alpha,5alpha,22R,23R,24S)- (9CI) ergostan-6-one, 2,3,22,23-tetrahydroxy-, (2alpha,3alpha,5alpha,22R,23R,24S)- (CAS 80736-41-0), molecular formula C28H48O5 and molecular weight 464.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 24-Epicastasterone 80736-41-0 BP 214 Castasterone Ergostan-6-one, 2,3,22,23-tetrahydroxy-, (2alpha,3alpha,5alpha,22R,23R,24S)- (9CI) ergostan-6-one, 2,3,22,23-tetrahydroxy-, (2alpha,3alpha,5alpha,22R,23R,24S)- (C28H48O5) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
