Versatile steroid molecules at the end of the aldosterone pathway
18-hydroxycorticosterone converts spontaneously and reversibly to a variety of less polar forms and derivatives, some of which are precursors to aldosterone. In particular, 21-hydroxy-11β,18-oxido-4-pregnene-3,20-dione (18-DAL) is hydroxylated to aldosterone with high yields in the presence of malat...
