Cholest-4-en-3-one-2,2,4,6,6-d5(9CI)

Description:

Cholest-4-en-3-one-2,2,4,6,6-d5(9CI) is a deuterated derivative of cholesterol, specifically a sterol characterized by the presence of a ketone functional group at the C3 position and a double bond between C4 and C5. The "d5" indicates that five hydrogen atoms in the molecule have been replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, which is often used in research to trace metabolic pathways or in NMR spectroscopy for structural analysis. This compound is typically utilized in biochemical and pharmaceutical research due to its structural similarity to cholesterol, allowing for the study of cholesterol metabolism and related pathways. Its unique isotopic labeling can help in distinguishing it from non-labeled compounds in various analytical techniques. The compound is also classified under the category of steroids, which play crucial roles in biological systems, including hormone production and cellular membrane structure.
