6-methyl-20-oxopregna-3,5-diene-3,17-diyl diacetate

Description:

6-Methyl-20-oxopregna-3,5-diene-3,17-diyl diacetate, with the CAS number 986-96-9, is a synthetic steroid compound that belongs to the class of corticosteroids. This compound features a steroid backbone characterized by a fused four-ring structure, which is typical of steroids. The presence of a methyl group at the 6-position and a ketone group at the 20-position contributes to its unique chemical properties and biological activity. The diacetate functional groups at the 3 and 17 positions enhance its lipophilicity, potentially influencing its absorption and distribution in biological systems. This compound may exhibit anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects, similar to other corticosteroids, making it of interest in pharmaceutical applications. Its structural modifications can affect its potency, efficacy, and side effect profile. As with many steroid derivatives, careful handling and consideration of its pharmacological properties are essential in research and therapeutic contexts.
