Product overview
Diosgenin (Diosgenin) comes from the rhizomes of the monocotyledonous twining vine of Diosgenaceae family, such as yam, ginger, xanthium, and diosgenin. It is an important basic raw material for the production, norethisterone, Furogenin and other steroidal drugs.

Chemical property
Diosgenin is flake or acicular crystal. Melting point 204-207ºC. Soluble in gasoline, ethanol, chloroform and other organic solvents, insoluble in water.

Diosgenin in yam slime is an important medical raw material, which is called medicinal gold in the medical field.

Diosgenin can be converted into diosgenin after fermentation to remove the sugar group, and its ability of anti-inflammation, lowering serum cholesterol, improving gastrointestinal function and secreting serum IgG antibody can be greatly improved.

Pharmacological action
Studies have shown that diosgenin has anti-oxidation, anti-vascular calcification, anti-tumor, anti-inflammation, anti-allergy, anti-virus and anti-shock effects.

Use
This product is an important steroid saponin and an important raw material of semi-synthetic steroid compounds.
Pregnenedionol was prepared by ring-opening, oxidation, hydrolysis and elimination of diosgenin.
It can be prepared by oximation, rearrangement and hydrolysis.
These intermediates are of great value in drug production.
Diosgenin is a precursor to synthetic steroid drugs, used in the synthesis, norethisterone, Fuzonide and other steroid drugs.
A steroid saponin that has estrogenic activity and reduces serum cholesterol levels.
