Abstract

The invention comprises compounds of the formula: <FORM:0854407/IV(b)/1> wherein R2 is a lower alkyl group of less than 7 carbon atoms and R is an alkyl or aralkyl group when X is a saturated linkage characterizing an allo compound, or R is aralkyl when X is an unsaturated linkage between C4 and C5, also processes for the preparation of a 2a -alkyl or aralkyl derivative of a 17a -lower alkyl-D 4-androsten-17b -ol-3-one or a 17a -lower alkyl-androstan-17b -ol-3-one, (a) by treating the corresponding 2-unsubstituted steroid with ethyl formate in the presence of sodium hydride to form the corresponding 2-hydroxy methylene compound, reacting this with an alkyl or aralkyl iodide and eliminating carbon monoxide from the resulting 2-alkyl or aralkyl-2-formyl derivative by treatment with a mild base, e.g. alumina; (b) by catalytic hydrogenation (e.g. with a palladium catalyst) of a 17a -alkyl-2-alkyl or aralkyl-D 4-androsten-17b -ol-3-one to yield a mixture of the corresponding 5a -and 5b -androstane derivatives. Detailed examples illustrate the preparation of 2a -methyl-, 2a -ethyl-, 2a -propyl- and 2a -benzyl-17a -methyl-D 4-androsten-17b -ol-3-one and the corresponding androstane compounds, also the 2a -methyl-17a -ethyl and 2a -methyl-17a -propyl analogues. Specification 854,409 is referred to. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 809,485.
