Abstract

4-Methyl-substituted 6-oxa-8α-analogs of steroid estrogens have been synthesized and the  1H and  13C NMR signals of these compounds have been completely  assigned. It is shown that introduction of a methyl group in position 4 of steroids of the given stereochemical series leads to the loss of uterotropic and hypertriglyceridemic effects of the modified  compounds. Steroids with these properties may have promise for the creation of vectors for transport into  target organs of estrogens of other classes of compounds and inhibitors of enzymes responsible for the metabolism of hormones.
