17-Desethynyl norethindrone diacetate is a synthetic derivative of norethindrone, a progestin used in hormonal contraceptives and hormone replacement therapy. This compound is modified by removing the ethynyl group at the 17th position and adding acetyl groups to the hydroxyl groups. These modifications enhance the compound’s stability and pharmacokinetic properties. 17-Desethynyl norethindrone diacetate exhibits potent progestogenic activity and is employed in pharmaceutical formulations for contraception and managing hormone-related conditions.
