Description

Androsterone Acetate CAS NO 1164-95-0 is a synthetic steroid derivative, specifically the 3β-acetate ester of the endogenous androgen metabolite androsterone. This compound is a key intermediate in the synthesis of various steroidal pharmaceuticals and research chemicals. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and advanced life science research sectors for the development of hormone-based therapies and investigative studies.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A crucial building block in the multi-step synthesis of more complex steroidal active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Biochemical Research: Used as a reference standard or precursor in studies investigating androgen metabolism, receptor interactions, and endocrine pathways.
• Hormone Analog Development: Serves as a starting material for the creation of novel steroid analogs with potential therapeutic applications.
• Analytical Standard: Employed in quality control laboratories for method development and calibration in chromatographic analyses (e.g., HPLC, GC-MS) of steroid-containing products.
