Abstract: Considerable knowledge has been gathered on the physiological role of estrogens. However, fairly little information is available on the role of compounds produced in the breakdown process of estrone and estradiol wich may play a role in various diseases associated with estrogen impact. To date, approximately 15 extragonadal estrogen-related compounds have been identified. These metabolites may exert protective, or, instead, pro-inflammatory and/or pro-oncogenic activity in a tissue-specific manner. Systemic and local estrogen metabolite levels are not necesserily correlated, which may promote the diagnostic significance of the locally produced estrogen metabolites in the future. The aim of the present study is a bibliographic review of the extragonadal metabolome in peripheral tissues, and to highlight the role of the peripheral tissue homeostasis of estrogens as well as the non-hormonal biological activity and clinical significance of the estrogen metabolome.

In the reaction of thieno[2,3c]-2-benzothiepin-4(9H)-one (VI) with 1-methyl-4-piperidylmagnesium chloride 7-(1-methyl-4-piperidyl)thieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin-4(9H)-one (VIII) is formed in addition to the expected amino alcohol VII. The title compound I was obtained by the acid catalyzed dehydration of the pure alcohol VII. Compound I (pipethiadene) has outstanding antihistamine, antiserotonin, antireserpine and anticataleptic activity and was recommended to clinical trials as a potential antimigraine agent. For pharmacokinetic and metabolic studies there were prepared the NC2H3 analogue of pipethiadene IV and further, as potential metabolites, the demethyl analogue III, S-oxide X, demethyl S-oxide XI, N-oxide XIII and N,S-dioxide XIV. The Witting reaction of the ketone VI with 3-dimethylaminopropylidenetriphenylphosphorane resulted in a mixture of geometric isomers of 4-(3-dimethylamino-propylidene)-4,9-dihydrothieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin with the strongly predominating Z-isomer XVI which was isolated from the mixture by crystallization of the hydrogen maleate. The mixture with the predominating Z-isomer XVI was converted by the treatment with 80% sulfuric acid and dilution with water to a mixture with the predominating E-isomer XV (dithiadene) which was isolated by crystallization of the hydrogen sulfate. Some further new thieno[2,3-c]-2-benzothiepin derivatives were synthesized as potential intermediates.

An appreciable degree of pyramidalization of the amine N atom is observed in the title compound. The existence of polar chains, induced by N—H...O synthons, is confirmed. C—H...O interactions, not noted in a previous X-ray study, were found to stabilize further the known head-to-tail assembling of the chains. The structure can be described as non-polar (101) layers, embodying chains interlinked by centrosymmetric dimers, connected by C(aryl)—H...π interactions. The latter are not present in m-nitroaniline, 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline and other related compounds with chains built from similar N—H...O synthons and assembled head-to-head. This finding implies that an obvious relationship between molecular recognition patterns and crystal structures should not be assumed.

The total synthesis of the title compound 22 and methyl 14α-hydroxy-5β,13α,8-androstene-1,7,17-trioxo-10β-oate 21 isomer is reported. We also describe the 1,6-Michael addition of 2-methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione on dienone 14 and the protic ammonium salt catalyzed intramolecular Michael addition of cyclic β-ketoester on the conjugated acetylenic ketone 13. Keywords: cardenolides, steroid synthesis, aldol, Michael addition.

The title compound, C6H11NO3S, provides entries to novel carbamoyl disulfanes and related compounds of interest to our laboratory. The atoms of the central O(C=S)N(C=O)O fragment have an r.m.s. deviation of 0.1077 Å from the respective least-squares plane. While several conformational orientations are conceivable, the crystal structure shows only the one in which the carbonyl and the thiocarbonyl moieties areantito each other across the central conjugated C—N—C moiety. Pairs of 2.54 Å N—H...S=C hydrogen bonds between adjacent molecules form centrosymmetric dimers in the crystal.
