Spirostan is a defined parent hydride in the nomenclature of steroids.[1] It is characterised by a bicyclic side chain containing a ketone spiro acetal group. In the spirostan structure, the configurations of carbons 5 and 25 is not defined, and so must be specified for each derivative. Spirostan steroids are common as the aglycosidic portions of plant saponins, and include:
| C-5 | C-25 | Other | |
|---|---|---|---|
| sarsasapogenin | β | S | 3β-OH |
| smilagenin | β | R | 3β-OH |
| tigogenin | α | R | 3β-OH |
| diosgenin | Δ5 | R | 3β-OH |
| anzurogenin-D | α | R | 3β-OH, 5α-OH, 6β-OH |
| sisalgenin | α | S | 3β-OH, C=O at C-12 |
| roscogenin | Δ5 | S | 1β-OH, 3β-OH |
