Pregn-4-en-21-oic acid,11,20-dihydroxy-3-oxo-, (11b)-

Description:

Pregn-4-en-21-oic acid, 11,20-dihydroxy-3-oxo-, (11b)-, commonly known as a steroid compound, is characterized by its complex structure that includes a steroid nucleus with specific functional groups. This compound features a pregnane backbone, which is a 21-carbon steroid structure, and is distinguished by the presence of a double bond at the 4-position and hydroxyl groups at the 11 and 20 positions. The keto group at the 3-position contributes to its reactivity and biological activity. This compound is often studied for its potential hormonal effects and therapeutic applications, particularly in the context of steroid hormones and their derivatives. Its unique stereochemistry, indicated by the (11b)- designation, suggests specific spatial arrangements of atoms that can influence its biological interactions. As a member of the steroid family, it may exhibit properties such as anti-inflammatory effects, modulation of metabolic processes, and influence on reproductive functions. Overall, this compound is significant in both biochemical research and potential pharmaceutical applications.
