STEROIDS (seco-steroids C 07 C) [2]
 

Notes

(1)

This subclass covers compounds containing a cyclopenta[a]hydrophenanthrene skeleton or a ring structure derived therefrom:
 

-

by contraction or expansion of one ring by one or two atoms,
 

-

by contraction or expansion of two rings each by one atom,
 

-

by contraction of one ring by one atom and expansion of one ring by one atom,
 

-

by substitution of one or two carbon atoms of the cyclopenta[a]hydrophenanthrene skeleton, which are not shared by rings, by hetero atoms, in combination with the above defined contraction or expansion or not, or
 

-

by condensation with carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings in combination with one or more of the foregoing alterations or not. [4]

(2)

In this subclass, it is desirable to add the indexing codes of subclass C 07 M. The indexing codes should be unlinked. [6]
