Diosgenin Usage and Synthesis.

Diosgenin is derived from the rhizomes of monocotyledonous herbaceous twining vine plants of the family Dioscoreaceae, such as yam, ginger, yam, andrographis paniculata, etc. Diosgenin is an important raw material for the production of a variety of steroids, such as hydrocortisone, prednisone, kynurenine, botrytis, dexamethasone, and so on.

Uses of Diosgenin.

It is an important steroidal saponin element and an important raw material for semi-synthetic steroidal compounds. Diosgenin is subjected to ring-opening, oxidation, hydrolysis and elimination reactions to produce progesterone dienone alcohol.

Then oximisation, rearrangement and hydrolysis can produce dehydroepiandrosterone. These intermediates are of great value in the production of drugs.

Diosgenin is a precursor for the synthesis of steroid hormone drugs, used in the synthesis of hydrocortisone, prednisone, norethindrone, bupropion, dexamethasone and other types of steroid drugs.

Diosgenin is a steroidal saponin with estrogenic activity and can lower serum cholesterol levels.

Pharmacological Effect of Diosgenin.

Diosgenin is an important basic raw material for the production of steroid hormone drugs.

Steroid hormones have strong anti-infective, anti-allergic, anti-viral and anti-shock pharmacological effects, is the treatment of rheumatism, cardiovascular, lymphatic leukemia, cellular encephalitis, dermatological diseases, anti-tumor and rescue of critically ill patients of the important drugs; is an important steroid hormone intermediate pregnanediol ketone acetate as raw material, from which can be synthesized into hydrocortisone, prednisone, norethindrone, skin light and dexamethasone and other types of steroidal Drugs.

Diosgenin is called "medicinal gold" by the pharmaceutical industry, and its medicinal value is very important and broad.

China's Diosgenin is the world's stable growth and shortage of hormone-based raw materials, in the history of the world's steroid pharmaceutical raw materials industry, China's Diosgenin has been in a dominant and monopoly position, occupying the world's steroid pharmaceutical raw materials, 97% of the market share.

Although other developed countries have been committed to finding and making substitutes for decades, due to the inherent climatic and geographical conditions and raw material shortcomings, resulting in substitutes for high cost, low product utilisation and other shortcomings, so that developed countries around the world have been forced to rely only on China's imports over the past few decades. 

Saponin extracted from ginger is an important raw material for the synthesis of hormones in the pharmaceutical industry, which can be synthesised and processed on the basis of intermediary raw material products such as bisabolene and Wolters Kluwer oxides, as well as hormone series products such as progesterone, prednisone acetate, budesonide, prednisone acetate, methyltestosterone, cyclopropylpregnaudate, mesterolone, androstenone, bethisterol, dehydroepiandrosterone, etc. These drugs are extremely widely used and are widely used in the world's pharmaceutical industry.

These drugs have a wide range of uses and are the second largest class of drugs in the world after antibiotics. The development of (Dioscorea) ginger production and processing, broad prospects.
