Abstract

Novel 3-alkyl enol ethers of 6-formyl-D 4-3-keto steroids of the androstane and pregnane series; novel 6-formyl-D 4-3-keto steroids of the formula <FORM:1070414/C2/1> (wherein R2 is CH2, CO or CHOH; R3 is hydrogen or methyl; R5 is hydrogen, hydroxy or acetoxy; R6 is hydrogen, hydroxy or acetoxy; and X is hydrogen or fluorine); and the specific novel 6-formyl-D 4-3-keto-steroids 6-formyl-testosterone; 6-formyl-4-androsten-3,17-dione and 6-formyl-11b ,17a ,21-trihydroxy-4-pregnene-3,20-dione 21-propionate are prepared by reacting the 6-unsubstituted 3-enol ethers with dimethyl formamide and phosgene and, if desired, hydrolysing the 6-formyl products with a strong acid to give the corresponding 3-keto-6-formyl-D 4-steroids. These products may exist as the tautomeric 6-hydroxy-methylene compounds. Examples are given, and reference is also made (1) to the preparation of 6-methylene-progesterone by reduction and hydrolysis of a 3-enol ether of 6-formyl-20 -ethylenedioxy-progesterone; (2) a similar preparation of 6-methylene-hydrocortisone; (3) preparation of the 6-hydrazone of the 3-n-propyl-enol ether of 6-formyl-17a -acetoxy-20-ethylenedioxy-progesterone, reduction to the 6-methyl-17a -ol and hydrolysis and acetylation to give 6a -methyl -17a -acetoxy-progesterone; and (4) similar preparation of other 6a -methyl steroids. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to the Specifications 929,983 and 991,813.
