title: Influence of functional groups on homologous antibody affinity of 11 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone derivatives. I. Synthesis and affinity evaluation.
abstract: Syntheses and cross-reactivities with progesterone toward the same specific antibody are reported for a series of amides of 11 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone 11-hemisuccinate. Some hypotheses are made regarding the effects of the chemical structure of the substituents on the immunological properties of derivatives.
