CAS 1423-97-8

β-Dihydroequilenin

Description:

β-Dihydroequilenin, with the CAS number 1423-97-8, is a naturally occurring steroid and a member of the class of compounds known as phytoestrogens, which are plant-derived compounds that can mimic estrogen in the body. It is primarily derived from the roots of the wild yam plant and is structurally related to equilin, a hormone found in horse urine. This compound exhibits estrogenic activity, making it of interest in hormone replacement therapy and various health supplements aimed at alleviating menopausal symptoms. β-Dihydroequilenin is characterized by its specific molecular structure, which includes a steroid backbone with hydroxyl groups that contribute to its biological activity. It is typically found in a crystalline form and is soluble in organic solvents. The compound's pharmacological effects are attributed to its ability to bind to estrogen receptors, influencing various physiological processes. As with many phytoestrogens, the safety and efficacy of β-Dihydroequilenin in therapeutic applications continue to be subjects of research and debate within the scientific community.
