    Product Description:
    1-Androsten-3-one-4-aza-17b-carboxylic acid is a synthetic steroidal derivative characterized by a modified androstane core structure. The key structural features include the introduction of a nitrogen atom at the 4-position of the A-ring (forming a 4-aza group) and a carboxylic acid moiety at the 17-beta position. This specific modification places it within the category of azasteroids. This compound is primarily utilized as a key pharmaceutical intermediate in the research and development of steroidal drugs. The 4-aza modification is a classical strategy in medicinal chemistry to alter the biological activity and metabolic profile of steroid hormones. It serves as a crucial building block for synthesizing more complex molecules targeting hormone-related pathways, including potential 5-alpha reductase inhibitors or other endocrine modulators. As a specialized intermediate, its use is confined to laboratory-scale synthesis and preclinical research within the pharmaceutical and life sciences sectors. Handling requires standard precautions for fine chemicals, and it is typically supplied for research purposes only under controlled conditions.
