Stilbestrol

Stilbestrol, or stilboestrol, also known as 4,4'-dihydroxystilbene or 4,4'-stilbenediol, is a stilbenoid nonsteroidal estrogen[1] and the parent compound of a group of more potent nonsteroidal estrogen derivatives that includes, most notably, diethylstilbestrol (DES).[1][2][3] The term "stilbestrol" is often used incorrectly to refer to DES, but they are not the same compound.[2]

Not to be confused with Diethylstilbestrol.

Stilbestrol itself is an active estrogen but is less potent than DES and other derivatives.[1]

Stilbestrol derivatives

The stilbestrol estrogenic drugs include the following:

Of the stilbestrol estrogens, diethylstilbestrol, hexestrol, and benzestrol are the most well-known.[4]

Mechanism of action

The stilbestrol estrogens bind with high affinity to both ERα and ERβ.[5]

Footnotes: a = (1) Binding affinity values are of the format "median (range)" (# (#–#)), "range" (#–#), or "value" (#) depending on the values available. The full sets of values within the ranges can be found in the Wiki code. (2) Binding affinities were determined via displacement studies in a variety of in-vitro systems with labeled estradiol and human ERα and ERβ proteins (except the ERβ values from Kuiper et al. (1997), which are rat ERβ). Sources: See template page.
Triphenylethylene.

Estrogens closely related to the stilbestrols include paroxypropione (a metabolite of diethylstilbestrol) and the anise and fennel-derived compounds anol, dianol, anethole, dianethole, and photoanethole (from which the stilbestrol estrogens were actually originally derived). The triphenylethylene group of estrogenic drugs that includes triphenylethylene itself, estrobin, chlorotrianisene, broparestrol, ethamoxytriphetol, clomifene, tamoxifen, and more recently developed derivatives is also very closely related structurally to the stilbestrols.

Resveratrol is a stilbenoid with estrogenic properties that is not technically a stilbestrol derivative (it is 3,4',5-stilbenetriol).[6]

Occupational exposure

Occupational exposure to stilbestrol has resulted in gynaecomastia in workers.[7]
