Description

Androstane-3,5,6-Triol,(3,5,6)-(9Ci) is a high-purity steroid derivative, specifically a trihydroxy androstane, serving as a critical intermediate in advanced pharmaceutical synthesis and biochemical research. Its defined stereochemistry at the 3,5,6 positions makes it a valuable building block for developing novel therapeutic agents and reference standards. This compound is primarily utilized by research institutions and pharmaceutical companies engaged in endocrinology, metabolic disorder studies, and the development of steroidal drugs.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral synthon for the synthesis of complex steroid-based active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Biochemical Research: Used as a reference standard or precursor in studies of steroid metabolism, enzyme inhibition, and receptor binding assays.
• Reference Material: Serves as a high-purity certified reference material (CRM) for analytical method development and quality control in laboratories.
• Academic Research: Employed in universities and research institutes for investigating steroid biosynthesis pathways and structure-activity relationships (SAR).
• Metabolite Standard: Potential use as an analytical standard for detecting and quantifying steroid metabolites in biological samples.

Quality Control

Our Androstane-3,5,6-Triol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and specific tests for residual solvents and impurities. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with your research or cGMP-grade requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
