Chemical Structure

Nordihydrocodeine CAS 845-69-2 chemical structure

Description

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

Nordihydrocodeine (CAS 845-69-2), molecular formula C17H27NO3 and molecular weight 293.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Nordihydrocodeine (C17H27NO3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

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.
