Long-acting contraceptive agents: Norethisterone esters of polyunsaturated acids

8 pages, 1 scheme.-- PMID: 6658875 [PubMed].Some new derivatives of norethisterone (17α-ethynyl-17β-hydroxyestr-4-en-3-one) are described in which the 17β-hydroxyl group of the steroid is esterified with polyunsaturated aliphatic acids. The potential of these compounds as long-acting contraceptive agents has been evaluated.The authors thank the Special Programme of Research, Development and Research Training in Human Reproduction, World Health Organization, for financial support for this work
