Cholestan-3β,5α,6β-triol, min. 95 %, 50 mg

Cholestan-3β,5α,6β-triol is a polyhydroxylated steroid derivative supplied at a minimum purity of 95 %, with the empirical formula C₂₇H₄₈O₃ and CAS number 1253-84-5. It has a molar mass of 420,67 g/mol and a boiling point of 515,7 °C. The product is Analytical and physical data from manufacturer Carl ROTH support identity confirmation and quantitative handling in small-scale experiments. The triol structure on the cholestane skeleton makes it relevant as a reference compound, intermediate or probe in studies of oxysterols and related pathways. Biochemists and medicinal chemists can use the stated molar mass for precise stock preparation and dosing. is appropriate for method development, screening assays and specialised synthetic or analytical work where only limited quantities of high-value steroid standards are required.
