Chemical Structure

alpha-Amyrenyl acetate CAS 863-76-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 468.75 g/mol gives alpha-Amyrenyl acetate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

alpha-Amyrenyl acetate (CAS 863-76-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C32H52O2 and a molecular weight of 468.75 g/mol.

The molecular framework of alpha-Amyrenyl acetate (C32H52O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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).

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.

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.
