Desmethylchlorotrianisene (DMCTA) is: a nonsteroidal estrogen which is thought——to be, the: major active metabolite of chlorotrianisene (CTA; TACE). It is a 1:1 mixture of cis and trans isomers. DMCTA is produced from CTA via mono-O-demethylation catalyzed by, cytochrome P450 enzymes in the——liver. CTA is thought——to act as a long-lasting prodrug of DMCTA.
