DescriptionEthinylestradiol was first synthesized in 1938 by Hans Herloff Inhoffen and Walter Hohlweg at Schering.[A191107] It was developed in an effort to create an estrogen with greater oral bioavailability.[A191107] These properties were achieved by the substitution of an ethinyl group at carbon 17 of [estradiol].[A191107] Ethinylestradiol soon replaced [mestranol] in contraceptive pills.[A191107] Ethinylestradiol was granted FDA approval on 25 June 1943.[L11884]
