6β-Hydroxyprogesterone

Description:
6β-Hydroxyprogesterone is a steroid hormone and a derivative of progesterone, characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group at the 6β position of its steroid structure. This compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and methanol, but has limited solubility in water. It exhibits biological activity similar to that of progesterone, playing a role in various physiological processes, including the regulation of the menstrual cycle and maintenance of pregnancy. The compound is often used in research settings to study steroid hormone metabolism and receptor interactions. Its chemical formula is C21H30O3, and it has a molecular weight that reflects its steroidal nature. As with many steroid derivatives, 6β-Hydroxyprogesterone may have implications in pharmacology and therapeutic applications, particularly in hormone replacement therapies and reproductive health. Proper handling and storage conditions are essential due to its biological activity and potential effects on human health.
