Castrated rats received on the first experiment- For some purposes, it is desirable to add alumial day a quantity of the designated ester equivnum monostearate to the oil solution to obtain a alent to five milligrams of testosterone, dissolved thixotropic gel. Thixotropic gels may be prein peanut oil containing two percent aluminum pared by adding about two percent by weight per monostearate. At the end of each period of time volume of oil of aluminum monostearate to an indicated, six of the animals were sacrified and oil solution of the ester at room temperature.
- 3 The solution is then heated to about 120 degrees centigrade, held at that temperature for about ten minutes and the solution thereafter cooled. A thixotropic gel results which is solid at ordinary temperatures, but which will liquefy, if shaken.
The following examples are given to illustrate a method for preparing the products of this invention, but the said invention is not to be limited thereto.
Example 1.-Testosterone beta-cyclopentylpropionate One and eight-tenth grams of beta-cyclopentylpropionyl chloride [J. Chem. Soc. (1939), page 1065] was added to a solution of 3.0 grams of testosterone in 7.0 grams of dry pyridine at a substantially uniform rate over a period of ten minutes. The reaction temperature was maintained at about five degrees centigrade during the addition. The temperature of the mixture was then raised to 26 degrees centigrade, and after being held there for four and one-half hours, the mixture was poured into 50 milliliters of cold aqueous G-normal sulfuric acid and extracted four times with 25-milliliter portions of isopropyl ether. The ether extracts were combined, washed with dilute acid, water,dilute sodium bicarbonate and water. After drying, filtering and evaporating, light yellow crystals formed which were recrystallized from normal hexane. There was thus obtained 3.4 grams (80 percent of the theoretical yield) of testosterone beta-cyclopentylpropionate, melting at 101-102 degrees centigrade, [a]D +76.4 (chloroform).
Analysis:
Calculated for Carl-R103" C, 78.59 H, 9.77 Found 78.57 9.54
Example 2 A solution of three grams of dry, crystalline testosterone beta-cyclopentylpropionate in 20 milliliters of ethyl ether was added, with stirring, to 100 milliliters of U. S. P. XII cottonseed oil contained in a 300-milliliter balloon flask; The flask was fitted with a capillary ebullator attached to a stream of nitrogen, evacuated and warmed on a steam bath. After about an hour, all of the other had been removed and a clear oil solution remained containing 30 milligrams per milliliter of testosterone beta-cyclopentylpropionate.
For the purpose of preservation, five milligrams of chlorobutanol per milliliter of solution may be added either to the hot oil or to the ether solution of the ester.
In a similar manner, solutions of testosterone beta-cyclopentylpropionate were prepared using sesame, peanut or corn oil.
Example 3 To vigorously stirred solution of three grams of testosterone beta-cyclopentylpropionate in milliliters of peanut oil at 24 degrees centigrade, 1.9 grams of dry aluminum monostearate was added at a substantially uniform rate over a period of five minutes. The temperature of the mixture was then raised at a rate of 10 degrees centigrade per minute until a temperature of 120 degrees centigrade was obtained, and held at 120 degrees centigrade for 10 minutes. Stirring was discontinued and the clear syrupy product was allowed to cool at room temperature. There was thus obtained milliliters of a thixotropie gel containing 30 milligrams of testosterone betacyclopentylpropionate per milligram. Upon agitation, a free-flowing liquid was obtained which is suitable for injection.
Various modifications may be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope thereof, and it is to be understood that I limit myself only as defined in the appended claims.
I claim:
l. A therapeutic composition for parental administration having a prolonged androgenic efiect, comprising: a sterile solution of testosterone beta-cyolopentylpropionat in a non-toxic vegetable oil.
2. A therapeutic composition for parental administration having a prolonged androgenic efiect, comprising: a sterile solution of testosterone beta-cyclopentylpropionate and aluminum monostearate in a non-toxic vegetable oil.
3. A therapeutic composition for parental administration having a prolonged androgenic effect, comprising: a sterile solution of testosterone beta-cyclopentylpropionate in peanut oil.
4. A therapeutic composition for parental ad ministration having a prolonged androgenic effeet after a single injection comprising a sterile solution of testosterone beta-cyclopentylpropionate and about two percent by weight of aluminum monostearate of the volume of the oil used in peanut oil.
5. Testosterone beta-cyclopenty1propionate.
