Abstract

4-Halo-3-keto steroids, particularly 4-halo-21-acyloxy - 17a - hydroxypregnane - 3 : 11 : 20 - triones, are prepared by contacting a 3-hydroxy steroid, particularly a 21-acyloxy-3 : 17a -di-hydroxypregnane-11 : 20-dione, with a hypohalous acid, preferably in an inert organic solvent. The 21-acyloxy radical preferably contains from one to eight carbon atoms inclusive, and the starting materials may be further substituted by halo, alkoxy or alkyl groups. The preferred solvent is tertiary butyl alcohol, incorporating between traces to eighteen per cent of water. In examples: (1) 21-acetoxy-3a : 17a - dihydroxy - pregnane - 11 : 20 - dione in aqueous tertiary butyl alcohol is treated with hypobromous acid to yield 4-bromo-21-acetoxy-17a -hydroxypregnane-3 : 11 : 20-trione. (2) As in (1) using hypochlorous acid to produce the corresponding 4-chloro-compound. Numerous other 21-esters are listed. (3) The 4-bromotrione of (1) and the chloro analogue are likewise obtained from 21 - acetoxy - 3b : 17a -dihydroxy pregnane - 11 : 20 - dione. Other examples describe the preparation of 4-chloro-17a - hydroxy pregnane - 3 : 11 : 20 - trione; 4 - chloro - pregnane - 3 : 20 - dione; 4 - chloro - 17a - hydroxy - 21 - bromopregnane - 3 : 11 : 20 - trione; 4 - chloro - coprostanone; 4 - chloropregnane - 3 : 11 : 20 - trione; 4 - bromo - pregnane - 3 : 11 : 20 - trione; 4 - chloro - 11a - hydroxy - pregnane - 3 : 20 - dione; 4 - chloro - 3 - keto - 17 - isoetiocholanic acid and its 4-bromo-analogue. 21 - Acetoxy - 3b : 17a - dihydroxy - pregnane - 11 : 20 - dione is prepared from pregnane - 3 : 11 : 20-trione by Raney nickel reduction, enol acylation, epoxidation of 17(20) double bond, hydrolysis, bromination in the 21-position and final treatment with potassium acetate. 21 - Acetoxy - 3a : 17a - dihydroxy - pregnane - 11 : 20-dione is prepared from 3a : 17a -dihydroxy-pregnane-11 : 20-dione by bromination in the 21-position and treatment with potassium acetate.
