| EQUILENIN Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Estrogenic steroidal hormone isolated from urine of pregnant mares. Occurs naturally in the d-form. Not found in human urine. Component of conjugated estrogenic hormones. Estrogen. | | Uses | Equilenin is a naturally occuring estrogenic steroidal hormone (1,2) isolated from urine of pregnant mares (3). Not found in human urine. Component of conjugated estrogenic hormones. Estrogen. This compound is a contaminant of emerging concern (CECs). Drinking water contaminant candidate list 3 (CCL 3) compound as per United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), environmental, and food contaminants. | | Purification Methods | Crystallise (+)-equilenin from EtOH (solubility is 0.63% at 18o, 2.5% at 78o), aqueous EtOH or *C6H6 (Norite) and dry it in a vacuum. It sublimes on melting and at 170-180o/0.01mm. The acetate crystallises from MeOH with m 165-167o and [ ] D +71o (c 1, CHCl3). [Bachmann et al.
