SMILES: CC(O)=O.C[C@@]1([C@H]2C(NC(C)(C)C)=O)[C@](CC2)([H])[C@@](CC[C@](N3)([H])[C@@]4(C=CC3=O)C)([H])[C@]4([H])CC1
Biological Activity: Finasteride (MK-906) acetate is a potent and competitive 5α-reductase inhibitor, with an IC50 of 4.2 nM for type II 5α-reductase. Finasteride acetate has approximately a 100-fold greater affinity for type II 5α-reductase enzyme than for the type I enzyme. Finasteride acetate can be used for the research of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and androgenic alopecia[1][2][3].
