Summary Chemical degradation of the new crystalline mineralocorticoid provisionally called electrocortin has shown that this compound is 11β, 21-dihydroxy-3, 20-diketo-4-pregnen-18-al. In solution this reacts mainly as the 11-hemiacetal. We suggest aldosterone as a definitive name for the compound.
