Description

17-(2-Iodovinyl)Dihydrotestosterone is a synthetic, iodinated steroid derivative of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This compound is of significant interest in biochemical and pharmaceutical research due to its potential as a molecular probe or intermediate in the development of novel therapeutic agents. It is primarily utilized by research institutions and pharmaceutical development companies engaged in endocrinology, oncology, and receptor-binding studies.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a high-affinity ligand or tracer in androgen receptor (AR) binding assays and mechanistic studies.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a key synthetic intermediate in the development of novel steroid-based therapeutics.
• Molecular Imaging: Potential precursor for radiolabeled compounds (e.g., with I-125 or I-131) used in diagnostic imaging or targeted radiotherapy research.
• Endocrinology Studies: Employed to investigate the structure-activity relationships (SAR) of modified androgens and their metabolic pathways.
• Reference Standard: Used as an analytical standard in quality control laboratories for method development and validation.
