16-Methylene-17α-hydroxyprogesterone acetate
16-Methylene-17α-hydroxyprogesterone acetate is a progestin of the 17α-hydroxyprogesterone group which was never marketed.[1][2][3][4][5] Given orally, it shows about 2.5-fold the progestogenic activity of parenteral progesterone in animal bioassays.[5] It is a parent compound of the following clinically used progestins:[6][7]
- Chlormethenmadinone acetate (6-chloro-16-methylene-17α-hydroxy-Δ6-progesterone acetate)
- Melengestrol acetate (6-methyl-16-methylene-17α-hydroxy-Δ6-progesterone acetate)
- Methenmadinone acetate (16-methylene-17α-hydroxy-Δ6-progesterone acetate)
- Segesterone acetate (16-methylene-17α-hydroxy-19-norprogesterone acetate)
