Hyodeoxycholic Acid

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Hyodeoxycholic acid, also known as 3a,6a-Dihydroxy-5-cholan-24-oic acid or HDCA, is a secondary bile acid, one of the metabolic byproducts of intestinal bacteria. It differs from deoxycholic acid in that the 6a-hydroxyl is in the 12 position in the former. The 6a-hydroxyl group makes HDCA a hydrophilic acid, a property it shares with hyocholic acid. HDCA is present in mammalian species in different proportions. It is the main acid constituent of hog bile, and for this reason it was used industrially as precursor for steroid synthesis before total synthesis became practical.
