Androstane
Androstane is a C19 steroidal hydrocarbon with a gonane core.
Asymmetric carbon
In stereochemistry, an asymmetric carbon is a carbon atom that is bonded to four different types of atoms or groups of atoms.
See Gonane and Asymmetric carbon
Bicyclic molecule
A bicyclic molecule is a molecule that features two joined rings.
See Gonane and Bicyclic molecule
Cyclohexane
Cyclohexane is a cycloalkane with the molecular formula.
Cyclopentane
Cyclopentane (also called C pentane) is a highly flammable alicyclic hydrocarbon with chemical formula C5H10 and CAS number 287-92-3, consisting of a ring of five carbon atoms each bonded with two hydrogen atoms above and below the plane.
Estrane
Estrane is a C18 steroid derivative, with a gonane core. Gonane and Estrane are steroid stubs.
Ethyl group
In organic chemistry, an ethyl group (abbr. Et) is an alkyl substituent with the formula, derived from ethane.
Hydrocarbon
In organic chemistry, a hydrocarbon is an organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon.
Hydrogenation
Hydrogenation is a chemical reaction between molecular hydrogen (H2) and another compound or element, usually in the presence of a catalyst such as nickel, palladium or platinum.
Levonorgestrel
Levonorgestrel is a hormonal medication which is used in a number of birth control methods.
Methyl group
In organic chemistry, a methyl group is an alkyl derived from methane, containing one carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms, having chemical formula (whereas normal methane has the formula). In formulas, the group is often abbreviated as Me.
Phenanthrene
Phenanthrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) with formula C14H10, consisting of three fused benzene rings.
Polycyclic compound
In the field of organic chemistry, a polycyclic compound is an organic compound featuring several closed rings of atoms, primarily carbon.
See Gonane and Polycyclic compound
Pregnane
Pregnane, also known as 17β-ethylandrostane or as 10β,13β-dimethyl-17β-ethylgonane, is a C21 steroid and, indirectly, a parent of progesterone. Gonane and Pregnane are steroid stubs.
Progestogen (medication)
A progestogen, also referred to as a progestagen, gestagen, or gestogen, is a type of medication which produces effects similar to those of the natural female sex hormone progesterone in the body.
See Gonane and Progestogen (medication)
Saturated and unsaturated compounds
A saturated compound is a chemical compound (or ion) that resists addition reactions, such as hydrogenation, oxidative addition, and binding of a Lewis base.
See Gonane and Saturated and unsaturated compounds
Side chain
In organic chemistry and biochemistry, a side chain is a chemical group that is attached to a core part of the molecule called the "main chain" or backbone.
Stereoisomerism
In stereochemistry, stereoisomerism, or spatial isomerism, is a form of isomerism in which molecules have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms (constitution), but differ in the three-dimensional orientations of their atoms in space.
See Gonane and Stereoisomerism
Steroid
A steroid is an organic compound with four fused rings (designated A, B, C, and D) arranged in a specific molecular configuration. Gonane and steroid are steroids.
Steroid hormone
A steroid hormone is a steroid that acts as a hormone. Gonane and steroid hormone are steroids.
See Gonane and Steroid hormone
Structural analog
A structural analog, also known as a chemical analog or simply an analog, is a compound having a structure similar to that of another compound, but differing from it in respect to a certain component.
See Gonane and Structural analog
