The occurrence of Lucidenic acid A 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.
CATO supplies Lucidenic acid A (CAS 95311-94-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C27H38O6, MW 458.59 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Lucidenic acid A is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 458.59 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures Lucidenic acid A 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.
