Synthesis and biological activity of some 15-oxaestranes.
The estrogenic activity of orally administered 15-oxaestrone was evaluated by the uterotropic assay in rats and was found to be 12 times greater than that of estrone. In addition, several analogues of 15-oxaestrone were prepared and their estrogenic potency was determined.
