Synthesis of conformationally restricted progestational 13-ethylsteroids
摘要:
As 3-Ketodesogestrel and Gestodene differ in the conformation of the 13-ethyl group, a series of progestagens was devised in which this conformation is fixed. Thus, both epimers of a steroid with a methyl-substituted 11,13-ethano bridge were prepared and their biological activities compared. From the receptor binding activity, it was concluded that the "Desogestrel conformation" is the more active one. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
