Chemical Structure

8-epi Limaprost CAS CATO-C4X-21452 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 8-epi Limaprost 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 8-epi Limaprost (CAS CATO-C4X-21452), a certified reference material (molecular formula C22H38O5, MW 382.53 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 8-epi Limaprost is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 382.53 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 8-epi Limaprost meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
