:5α-Androst-3-en-17-one
Description:
5α-Androst-3-en-17-one, commonly known as androstenone, is a steroid hormone and a member of the androstane family. It is characterized by its structure, which includes a steroid backbone with a double bond between the third and fourth carbon atoms and a ketone functional group at the 17th position. This compound is typically found in various biological systems, including the human body, where it plays a role in pheromone signaling and has been studied for its potential effects on social and sexual behavior. Androstenone is a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and is relatively insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. It has a distinct musky odor, which contributes to its classification as a pheromone. In terms of biological activity, it interacts with the vomeronasal organ in mammals, influencing reproductive behaviors. Its synthesis and metabolism are closely linked to other steroid hormones, making it an important compound in endocrinology and reproductive biology.
