7α-Methyl-19-norandrostenedione (MENT dione), or 7α-methyl-19-norandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione, also known as trestione, as well as 7α-methylestr-4-ene-3,17-dione, is a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS) and a derivative of 19-nortestosterone (nandrolone).[1][2] It may act as a prohormone of trestolone (7α-methyl-19-nortestosterone; MENT).[1][2] MENT dione has been sold on the Internet under the name Mentabolan as a "dietary supplement".[1][2]
Applications
[edit]- If mentabolan is oxidized with a catalytic amount of a copper halide in the presence of oxygen it gives almestrone.[3]
- Mentabolan is a precursor in a recent Chinese synthesis of tibolone.[4]
- Mentabolan was an intermediate in the original Upjohn synthesis of mibolerone.
