Abstract:
In the title compound, C26H33NO2 [systematic name: (3S,8R,9S,10R,13S,14S)-10,13-dimethyl-17-(pyridin-3-yl)-2,3,4,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15-dodeca-hydro-1H-cyclo-penta-[a]phenanthren-3-yl acetate], the steroid A, B, C and D rings adopt chair, half-chair, chair and envelope conformations, respectively. The flap atom of the envelope is the methine C atom fused with the C ring. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules, generated by a 21 screw axis, are linked by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a C(16) helical chain running along the c-axis direction.

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the...
Adrenergic Agonists: Chemistry and Structure-Activity Relationship
Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
