Nitogenin - Reference Information
| NIST chemical information | Information provided by: webbook.nist.gov (external link) |
| introduction | diosgenin (Diosgenin) comes from the rhizome of monocotyledonous herbaceous twining vines of Dioscoreaceae, such as yam, turmeric, diosporin, diosporin, etc. It is an important basic raw material for the production of hydrocortisone, prednisone, norethindrone, dexamethasone and other steroid drugs. |
| pharmacological effects | studies have shown that diosgenin has antioxidant, anti-vascular calcification, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, antiviral and anti-shock effects. |
| use | this product is an important steroidal sapogenin and an important raw material for semi-synthetic steroidal compounds. Diosgenin is subjected to ring-opening, oxidation, hydrolysis and elimination reactions to obtain pregnenone alcohol. After oximation, rearrangement and hydrolysis, dehydroepiandrosterone can be prepared. These intermediates have important value in drug production. diosgenin is the precursor of synthetic steroid hormone drugs, which is used to synthesize hydrocortisone, prednisone, norethisterone, skin ease, dexamethasone and other steroid drugs. A steroid sapogenin, with estrogen activity, can reduce serum cholesterol levels. |
| production method | using chuandi dragon crude drug or turmeric as raw material, obtained by hydrolysis and extraction. |
