Popis: Oxymetholone [C21H32O3] and metribolone [C19H24O2] are synthetic anabolic-androgenic agents which are included in the steroid class. Their ability to form new solid forms and their possibility to be included in host-guest β-cyclodextrin complexes was explored. The recrystallization of the compounds in a wide variety of solvents was accomplished. Two oxymetholone polymorphs and one oxymetholone acetic acid solvate were obtained:, while metribolone is reported only in the starting form. Their crystal structures were elucidated using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and the energies of intermolecular interactions were analyzed. Moreover, oxymetholone also showed the ability to be complexed in a new form of oxymetholone-β-cyclodextrin complex. The materials were also investigated by powder X-ray diffraction, DSC/DTA/TGA analysis, and FT-IR spectroscopy.
