Ormeloxifene main article needs editors[edit]

I've tried posting in Wikiproject:Clinical medicine, and have found few who know anything about ormeloxifene. Especially needed are chemists, scientists, and doctors who are knowledgable about this SERM. Thank you! Joie de Vivre 14:39, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Chemical Synthesis[edit]

Sorry, the intermediate (step 2 "PPA") can't be formed. You can't get an alkene by dehydratation of a ketone. --FK1954 (talk) 16:54, 6 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Raloxifene structure[edit]

The chemical structure of raloxifene is incorrect. It is missing the hydroxyl group at the 6 position of the benzofuran [6-hydroxy...]. It would be great if someone could correct this. Jtyndall03 (talk) 21:47, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
