CAS 35380-71-3: Estradiol hemihydrate
Description:Estradiol hemihydrate is a synthetic form of the naturally occurring estrogen estradiol, commonly used in hormone replacement therapy and various medical applications. It is characterized by its molecular formula, which includes a hemihydrate form indicating the presence of water molecules associated with the compound. Estradiol hemihydrate typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and methanol, but has limited solubility in water. The substance exhibits estrogenic activity, binding to estrogen receptors and influencing various physiological processes, including reproductive functions and bone density regulation. Its pharmacological effects are significant in treating conditions related to estrogen deficiency, such as menopausal symptoms and certain types of hormone-sensitive cancers. Safety and efficacy profiles are well-studied, and it is essential to consider potential side effects and contraindications when prescribing this compound. As with all medications, proper dosage and administration are crucial for achieving therapeutic benefits while minimizing risks.
