Konopelski, Joseph P.,Djerassi, Carl
, p. 722 - 726 (2007/10/02)
The syntheses of phenylselenium-substituted progesterone and testosterone derivatives are described, along with data which help to establish the stereochemistry of the substituents in the testosterone molecules.Except for 21-(phenylseleno)progesterone, the molecules exhibit greatly reduced receptor-binding capabilities.
