438-22-2 - Introduction
5-ALPHA-ANDROSTANE(5-ALPHA-ANDROSTANE) is a steroid compound naturally occurring in animals. Its chemical structure contains a dehydrocyclopentyl group and an alcohol group. It is the structural basis of the androgen testosterone, which plays an important physiological role in the human body.
Regarding the properties of 5-ALPHA-ANDROSTANE, it is a white to slightly yellow crystalline solid with a weak special smell. Its melting point is 145-157 degrees Celsius and its boiling point is 280-290 degrees Celsius. In addition, 5-ALPHA-ANDROSTANE has good solubility and is soluble in alcohols, ethers and some organic solvents.
5-ALPHA-ANDROSTANE has a wide range of applications in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. It is used as synthetically important drugs such as androgens and Estrogen antagonists. In addition, it is used in in vitro diagnostic reagents and dyes.
There are two main methods for preparing 5-ALPHA-ANDROSTANE: natural sources and synthetic. Natural sources include extracts from plants and animals, such as Pueraria extract. Artificial synthesis Target molecules can be synthesized by synthetic chemical methods.
Regarding safety information, 5-ALPHA-ANDROSTANE is generally considered to be relatively safe. However, any chemical should be used with caution and in accordance with relevant safety guidelines and procedures. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and respiratory tract during use or handling. If ingestion or exposure to 5-ALPHA-ANDROSTANE occurs, seek medical help immediately.
