Isolierung, Konstitution und Synthese eines neuen Steroides aus Nebennieren. Über Steroide, 155. Mitteilung

Abstract

Abstract A new crystalline substance has been isolated from hog adrenals in a yield of about 30 mg per 1000 kg glands. It appears to act under certain biological conditions as a sodium excreting factor. This compound is shown to be 3β,16α‐dihydroxy‐allopregnan‐20‐one; several syntheses of it as well as a number of derivatives are described.
