(3beta,4alpha,17xi)-cholest-5-ene-3,4-diol

Description:

(3beta,4alpha,17xi)-cholest-5-ene-3,4-diol, with the CAS number 34310-86-6, is a sterol compound characterized by its specific structural configuration, which includes a steroid backbone with hydroxyl groups at the 3 and 4 positions. This compound is part of the cholesterol family and exhibits properties typical of sterols, such as being hydrophobic due to its large hydrocarbon structure, while the hydroxyl groups impart some degree of hydrophilicity. It plays a role in biological systems, particularly in cell membrane structure and function, influencing fluidity and permeability. The presence of the double bond at the 5 position contributes to its stability and reactivity. Additionally, this compound may have implications in biochemical pathways and could be of interest in pharmacological research, particularly in relation to cholesterol metabolism and related disorders. Its specific stereochemistry is crucial for its biological activity and interaction with other biomolecules.
