LONG-ACTING CONTRACEPTIVE AGENTS: TESTOSTERONE ESTERS OF CYCLOALKYLCARBOXYLIC ACIDS

The synthesis of twenty five esters of testosterone (17β -hydroxyandrost- 4-en-3-one) is described. All esters are derivatives of cycloalkycarboxylic acids. Some of the esters possess α- , β -and/or & - substitution in the ester side-chain. The work was undertaken in order to evaluate long-acting male antifertility effect of such esters.
