Certain derivatives of adamantane-containing carboxylic acids, in particular 17β-(1-adamantoate)-19-nortestosterone or bolmantalate, which has a strong and unique anabolic action and high and prolonged myotropic activity [1, 2], are used in medical practice. It has been demonstrated that adding the adamantane fragment to a steroid molecule decreases the androgenic activity and leads to the appearance of new biological properties [3, 4].
