1. Molecular Architecture & Chemical Profile

Estradiol Valerate (CAS Number: 313-06-4, Molecular Formula: C₂₃H₃₂O₃, Molecular Weight: 356.50 g/mol) is a synthetic esterified derivative of natural 17β-estradiol. Chemical esterification at the C17-hydroxyl position with valeric acid creates a lipophilic prodrug designed to attenuate systemic clearance and ensure sustained therapeutic release following oral administration or depot intramuscular delivery.


As a leading High-Quality Estradiol Valerate Supplier, Gentolex implements strict control over polymorph generation, crystal structure, and stereospecificity. The introduction of the valerate ester moiety substantially increases lipid solubility, rendering it ideal for lipid-based oral delivery systems, oil-based injectable solutions, and transdermal dosage forms.

2. Therapeutic Indications & Clinical Applications

Estradiol Valerate serves as an essential API across primary global pharmaceutical sectors:

  • Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT): Alleviation of moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms and vulvovaginal atrophy associated with natural or surgical menopause.
  • Gender-Affirming Care: Essential component in feminizing hormone regimens requiring predictable serum 17β-estradiol pharmacokinetics.
  • Combination Oral Contraceptives (COCs): Integrated alongside progestins (such as dienogest) to provide optimized cycle control and reduced hepatic metabolic impact compared to ethinylestradiol.
  • Oncology & Gynaecology: Management of estrogen receptor-responsive clinical conditions under strict medical Supervision.

Information Gain Insight: Modern micronization technologies enable custom particle size distribution (PSD) profiles tailored for specific drug delivery matrices. For injectable suspension formulations, achieving a narrow D90 < 10 µm prevents needle clogging and ensures predictable hydrolysis rates by plasma esterases.

Industrial Synthesis Route & Process Optimization

Our high-efficiency esterification roadmap minimizes byproduct generation, eliminates heavy metal residue, and guarantees continuous batch-to-batch consistency.

Step 1: Regioselective Esterification

Natural 17β-estradiol is reacted with valeric anhydride or valeryl chloride in pyridine or organic solvent complexes under controlled temperature dynamics. Regioselectivity is maintained to prevent unwanted derivatization at the phenolic C3-hydroxyl group.

Step 2: Selective Hydrolysis & Purification

If diester formation occurs, controlled mild alkaline hydrolysis selectively cleaves the C3-valerate ester while retaining the stable C17-valerate ester. Recrystallization from ethanol-water or organic solvents isolates pristine crystalline product.

Step 3: Micronization & Quality Validation

The purified bulk API undergoes fluid energy jet milling under inert nitrogen purging. Laser diffraction particle sizing ensures exact adherence to D10, D50, and D90 parameters tailored to client formulation specifications.

Global Procurement Dynamics & Supply Chain Security

Navigating international regulatory frameworks, cold-chain transport imperatives, and dual-sourcing requirements for active pharmaceutical ingredient supply.

Regulatory Dossiers & Document Transparency

Comprehensive Q&A: Technical & Procurement Guide

Addressing key technical, regulatory, and logistics queries for Estradiol Valerate and chemical API sourcing.

What distinguishes Estradiol Valerate from Ethinylestradiol and free Estradiol?
Estradiol Valerate is a synthetic prodrug ester of natural 17β-estradiol. Unlike Ethinylestradiol, which possesses an ethinyl substitution at C17 causing prolonged hepatic retention and higher metabolic strain, Estradiol Valerate rapidly cleaves via endogenous esterases into natural 17β-estradiol and valeric acid. This results in a bio-identical hormone delivery profile with significantly enhanced gastrointestinal absorption relative to unesterified micronized estradiol.
What quality control parameters are provided with each Estradiol Valerate batch?
Every batch supplied by Gentolex is delivered with a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (CoA) including HPLC assay purity (typically ≥99.5%), residual solvent testing via GC-FID (ICH Q3C compliant), heavy metal content, endotoxin levels (for injectable formulations), loss on drying, optical rotation, and laser diffraction particle size distribution (PSD) metrics.
Can Gentolex accommodate customized micronization particle sizes?
Yes, our fluid energy micronization units allow precise particle size engineering. We provide standard unmicronized API, semi-micronized grades (D90 < 50 µm), and ultra-fine micronized grades (D90 < 10 µm) suitable for sterile oil suspensions and transdermal dosage forms.
What is the standard lead time and storage stability protocol?
Standard commercial quantities are kept in inventory for rapid air-freight dispatch. Custom synthetic batches require 4 to 6 weeks. Estradiol Valerate API exhibits exceptional long-term stability when stored in tightly sealed, light-resistant containers at 15°C to 30°C under ICH long-term stability testing conditions.
