title: Synthesis and photochemical reactions of nitroestrogens: possible photoaffinity labels of zero length.
abstract: The syntheses of 3,4-dimethoxy-1,3,5(10)-estratrien-17-one and 4-bromo-3-methoxy-2-nitro-1,3,5(10)-estratrein-17-one are described and their photoreactions with amines and hydroxide ion studied. The possible usefulness of these new steroids as photoaffinity labels of zero length is discussed.
