The term steroid has become virtually synonymous with drug abuse in
sport to the majority of the public. However these steroids -
androgens - actually comprise only a single relatively small class
of biologically active steroids, and are overshadowed by a large
collection of compounds, a sizeable number of which are commercial
drugs that share the same structural carbon skeleton. The
development of these drugs has led to a large body of organic
chemistry often denoted as "Steroid Chemistry".
Steroid Chemistry At A Glance provides a concise overview
of the main principles and reactions of steroid chemistry. Topics
covered include:
* history, isolation and structure determination of steroids
* steroid nomenclature and stereochemistry
* natural sources of steroids
* synthesis and reactions of aromatic a-ring steroids,
androstanes, and pregnanes
* steroids with a spirolactone at position 17
* steroids with hetrocyclic ring A
* compounds derived from cholesterol
Based on the highly successful and student friendly "at a
glance" approach, the information is presented in integrated, self
contained double page spreads of text and illustrative material.
Students of chemistry and pharmacy using Steroid Chemistry at a
Glance will find they have a resource with which they can
quickly, concisely and confidently acquire, regularly review and
revise the basic facts that underpin the properties, synthesis and
reactions of this important class of natural products. It will also
serve as a handy bench reference for postgraduates and professional
chemists.
