16alpha-Hydroxy Prednisolone is a high-value steroidal pharmaceutical intermediate used as a building block in the synthesis of several corticosteroid and glucocorticoid compounds. It is also known as 16α-Hydroxyprednisolone and is identified by CAS No. 13951-70-7. Pharmaceutical-industry references identify it as an important intermediate for the manufacture of budesonide, ciclesonide and related corticosteroid products.
Swapnroop Research Private Limited (SRPL) is an Indian manufacturer, supplier and exporter of pharmaceutical intermediates, fine chemicals and specialty chemicals. SRPL's website states that the company supplies pharmaceutical intermediates and chemical products to international markets.
Chemically, 16alpha-Hydroxy Prednisolone (molecular formula C₂₁H₂₈O₆, molecular weight 376.4 g/mol) belongs to the pregnane steroid framework and carries multiple hydroxyl groups together with the ketone functionality characteristic of corticosteroid intermediates. It is also referenced in pharmaceutical literature as Budesonide Impurity A / Budesonide EP Impurity A, though its principal industrial importance is as a steroidal intermediate rather than as an impurity marker.
SRPL supports B2B pharmaceutical procurement with documentation including a Certificate of Analysis (COA), Safety Data Sheet (SDS/MSDS), product specification, analytical test report, batch information, and, where applicable, Certificate of Origin and regulatory documentation. Batch-specific specifications such as assay, water content, related substances, and melting point are confirmed against the current SRPL COA at the time of order rather than published as fixed values here.
Commercial packaging is offered according to customer requirement, product quantity, transportation, and export requirements, typically using HDPE containers, fiber drums, or other approved pharmaceutical packaging.
