Uses

3-Oxo-4-aza-5b-androstan-17b-carboxylic Acid is an intermediate in the synthesis of 5b-Finasteride (F342030). 5b-Finasteride is an azasteroid and 5b-isomeric impurity of Finasteride (F342000). Finasteride is an inhibitor of 5a-reductase, the enzyme which converts testosterone to the more potent androgen, 5a-dihydrotestosterone and it an antialopecia agent.
