17ß-CYANO-19-NOR-ANDROST-4-ENE DERIVATIVE, USE THEREOF AND MEDICAMENTS CONTAINING SAID DERIVATIVE

摘要

The 17ß-cyano-19-nor-androst-4-ene derivatives of the present invention have gestagenic activity. They have the general chemical formula (1), in which Z is selected from the group comprising O, two hydrogen atoms, NOR and NNHSO2R, wherein R is hydrogen or C1-C4 alkyl, R4 is hydrogen or halogen and in addition either: R6a, R6b together form methylene or 1,2 ethanediyl or R6a is hydrogen and R6b is selected from the group comprising hydrogen, methyl and hydroxymethylene, and R7 is selected from the group comprising hydrogen, C1-C4 alkyl, C2-C3 alkenyl and cyclopropyl, or: R6a is hydrogen and R6b and R7 together form methylene, or are omitted, whereby a double bond is formed between C6 and C7, R9 and R10 are hydrogen, or are omitted, whereby a double bond is formed between C9 and C10, R15 and R16 are hydrogen or together form methylene, R17 is selected from the group comprising hydrogen, C1-C4 alkyl and aIIyI, at least one of the substituents R4, R6a, R6b, R7, R15, R16 and R17 not being hydrogen, or R6b and R7 being omitted, whereby a double bond is formed between C6 and C7. The derivatives also comprise the solvates, hydrates, stereoisomers, diastereomers, enantiomers and salts of the aforementioned substances.
