CAS 151265-33-7: (9b,11b,16a)-9,11-Epoxy-21-hydroxy-16-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione
Description:The chemical substance known as (9b,11b,16a)-9,11-Epoxy-21-hydroxy-16-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione, with the CAS number 151265-33-7, is a synthetic steroid compound. It features a complex steroid structure characterized by a fused four-ring system typical of steroid hormones. The presence of an epoxy group indicates that it has undergone an epoxidation reaction, which can influence its reactivity and biological activity. The hydroxyl group at the 21 position suggests potential for hydrogen bonding and increased solubility in polar solvents, while the methyl group at the 16 position may affect its steric properties and overall conformation. This compound is of interest in medicinal chemistry and pharmacology, particularly for its potential therapeutic applications. Its specific interactions with biological targets, such as steroid receptors, can lead to various physiological effects. As with many steroid derivatives, understanding its pharmacokinetics and dynamics is crucial for evaluating its efficacy and safety in clinical settings.
