Gonane (cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene) is a chemical compound with formula C
17
H
28
, whose structure consists of four hydrocarbon rings fused together: three cyclohexane units and one cyclopentane. It can also be viewed as the result of fusing a cyclopentane molecule with a fully hydrogenated molecule of phenanthrene, hence the more descriptive name "perhydrocyclopenta[a]phenanthrene". The non-systematic version of the above name is "cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene".[1]

It has no double bonds, that is, it is completely saturated and is considered the main structure of steroids, often referred to as the steroid nucleus.[1] There are many forms of gonane, but only a few occur naturally in living organisms. Some common forms include 5α-gonane and 5β-gonane. Estrane, androstane, and pregnane are derivatives of gonane with additional methyl or ethyl groups attached to certain carbon positions. The term gonane is also used to describe a group of progestins that are similar to levonorgestrel but have a slightly different structure than other hormones like estranes.

Significance

Gonane is a significant chemical compound in the family of steroids because its structure comprises four hydrocarbon rings fused together, consisting of three cyclohexane units and one cyclopentane, which is often referred to as the "steroid nucleus" and serves as the parent compound for steroids.

The discovery of gonane and its role as a steroid nucleus has been fundamental in understanding the structure and function of various steroid hormones. The numbering of steroid rings is determined based on the skeletal structure of gonane, providing a framework for the classification and identification of different steroids.

Usage of the term

The term gonane is also used to refer to a group of progestins[2] that are carbon 18-homologated 19-nortestosterone derivatives including levonorgestrel and its analogues.[3] This term is used in this way in order to distinguish them from estranes, which are also 19-nortestosterone derivatives.[3]

Structure

Gonane is a tetracyclic hydrocarbon with no double bonds. It is formally the parent compound of the steroids, hence it is called the "steroid nucleus".[1][4][5] Some important gonane derivatives are the steroid hormones, characterized by methyl groups at the C10 and C13 positions and a side chain at the C17 position.[5]

Because gonane has six centers of chirality, it has 64 (26) theoretically possible stereoisomers,[4] that differ on the position of the lone hydrogens at carbons 5, 8, 9, 10, 13 and 14 in the direction perpendicular to the mean plane of the carbons. However, only a few of these stereoisomers occur in living organisms.[4] The most common are 5α-gonane and 5β-gonane.

Variants

Estrane (C18) is the 13β-methyl variant of gonane, androstane (C19) is the 10β,13β-dimethyl variant of gonane, and pregnane (C21) is the 10β,13β-dimethyl, 17β-ethyl variant of gonane.[6][7]
