Preparation and biological activity of tricyclic non-steroidal inhibitors of human steroid 5α-reductase

Abstract

The synthesis and in vitro inhibitory studies against human types 1 and 2 steroid 5α-reductase of a series of 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene-2-carboxylic acids is reported. A (4-carboxy)phenyl substituent at C-7 provides a compound with activity against both isozymes. The structural features responsible for activity are discussed.
