| Description | Aldosterone, also known as aldocorten or delta-aldosterone, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 21-hydroxysteroids. These are steroids carrying a hydroxyl group at the 21-position of the steroid backbone. Aldosterone exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa) molecule. Aldosterone exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. |
