(9β,10α)-Pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione

Description:

(9β,10α)-Pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione, commonly known as progesterone, is a steroid hormone that plays a crucial role in the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and embryogenesis in humans and other species. It is characterized by its structure, which includes a steroid backbone with a ketone functional group at the C3 and C20 positions. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and chloroform but has limited solubility in water. Progesterone is synthesized in the ovaries, adrenal glands, and placenta, and it functions primarily by binding to progesterone receptors, influencing gene expression and regulating various physiological processes. Its biological effects include the preparation of the endometrium for potential implantation of an embryo, maintenance of pregnancy, and modulation of immune responses. Due to its significant role in reproductive health, progesterone is also used therapeutically in hormone replacement therapy and in the treatment of various gynecological conditions.
