Androsterone Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white to light beige crystalline powder

Uses

It was isolated from male urine after removed of the phenolic estrogen fraction.

Uses

Antihypertensor

Uses

Typical urinary 17-oxosteroid, formed by the metabolic reduction of testosterone. Less potent than testosterone.

Definition

ChEBI: An androstanoid that is 5alpha-androstane having a hydroxy substituent at the 3alpha-position and an oxo group at the 17-position. It is a metabolite of dehydroepiandrosterone .

Purification Methods

Crystallise androsterone from Me2CO/Et2O or Me2CO and sublime it in high vacuum. The acetate [1164-95-0] crystallises from Et2O, Me2CO/Et2O or aqueous EtOH and sublimes in high vacuum with m 165-166o, [] D 25 +87o (c 2, EtOH).
