CAS No.: 382-45-6

EINECS No.: 206-843-2

Molecular Formula: C??H??O?

Molecular Weight: 300.39 g/mol

Classification: Steroid hormone, organic steroid compound, pharmaceutical intermediate, API intermediate, dietary supplement raw material, research reagent, fine chemical

Physical & Chemical Properties

Appearance: White to off-white crystalline powder (may appear orange or greenish in some forms), odorless; stable under normal conditions, incompatible with strong oxidizing agents; slightly hygroscopic; no obvious hazard signs, but may cause mild irritation upon contact with skin and eyes.

Density: 1.1381 g/cm3 (25℃, rough estimate); refractive index n??/D 290° (c=0.2, ethanol); optical rotation (α)??/D +285.0 to +295.0° (c=0.2, ethanol), +300° (c=1, chloroform); LogP: 3.52 (predicted); PSA: 51.21; precise mass: 300.1725.

Melting Point: 219-222℃ (lit.); 220.0-224.0℃ (HPLC grade); decomposes at higher temperatures.

Boiling Point: 381.62℃ (rough estimate, atmospheric pressure); no obvious boiling phenomenon before decomposition.

Solubility: Slightly soluble in chloroform and ethyl acetate; soluble in ethanol; water solubility 98.49 mg/L (23.5℃); insoluble in non-polar solvents; freely soluble in DMSO.

Flash Point: Not available; Vapor Pressure: Negligible at 25℃ (predicted); pKa: Not available; Merck Index: 14,176.

Purity: ≥97.0% (industrial grade); ≥98.0% (analytical grade, LC/HPLC); ≥99.0% (high-purity grade, pharmaceutical intermediate).

Storage Condition: Sealed, stored in a cool and dry place at room temperature, protected from light and moisture; recommended storage temperature <15℃; keep container tightly closed; avoid high temperature and contact with strong oxidizing agents; prevent dust diffusion; for long-term storage, sealed storage in a cool and dark place is recommended.

Main Uses

Pharmaceutical & API Intermediate Field: As a key steroid intermediate, it is used in the synthesis of fluoxymesterone and dimethandrolone; also serves as an API intermediate for the research and production of steroid hormone drugs, with weak androgenic activity.
Dietary Supplement Field: Since 2007, it has been used as a dietary supplement to help reduce fat and increase muscle mass, mainly by acting as a selective and competitive hydroxysteroid (11-beta) dehydrogenase 1 (HSD11β1) inhibitor, preventing muscle breakdown.
Research & Laboratory Field: Used as a research reagent in molecular biology, pharmacology and steroid chemistry, mainly for the study of human endogenous metabolites, steroid hormone signal pathways, and the development of related drugs; used as a reference substance for drug analysis and detection.
Other Fields: Occurs in trace amounts in humans and most mammals, and in larger amounts in fish as a precursor to the primary androgen 11-ketotestosterone; used in the development and detection of pharmaceutical quality standards.
