Abstract

The invention comprises a compound having the formula (including the D 1-, the D 6-, and D 16 analogues thereof): <FORM:0870390/IV (b)/1> wherein R1 is hydrogen or methyl, R2 is hydrogen, fluorine or methyl, R3 is hydrogen or hydroxyl, R4 is hydrogen, fluorine, methyl, methylene, hydroxyl or acylated hydroxyl, the acyl group containing only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and being derived from a mono or a dicarboxylic acid containing up to ten carbon atoms, at least three of R1, R2, R3, R4 always being hydrogen, X is hydrogen, a -halogen, a -methoxy or a -ethoxy, Y is keto or b -hydroxyl, and one A is hydrogen and the other hydroxyl, and a process for preparing a compound having Formula I (including the D 1, D 6 and D 16 analogues thereof) which comprises reducing the corresponding bromo- or iodo-hydrin with zinc and acetic acid or Raney nickel in an inert organic solvent. The reaction may be effected at 0-15 DEG C. Illustrative products of the invention are 17b -(a -hydroxypropanoyl)- androstadiene- 11b ,17a -diol-3-one, 17b - (b -hydroxy-propanoyl)- D 14- androstadiene-11b , 17a -diol-3-one, the corresponding D 1, D 6 and D 16 compounds and the 9-halo-, 6-alkyl, 16-methylene and 16-methyl-derivatives thereof. Specification 870,388 is referred to.ALSO:Pharmaceutical compositions comprise, in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, a compound of the formula <FORM:0870390/VI/1> (or a D 1-, D 6- or D 1,6-analogue thereof), wherein R1 is hydrogen or methyl, R2 is hydrogen, fluorine or methyl, R3 is hydrogen or hydroxyl, R4 is hydrogen, fluorine, methyl, methylene, hydroxyl or acylated hydroxyl, the acyl group containing only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and being derived from a mono or dicarboxylic acid containing up to 10 carbon atoms, at least three of R1, R2, R3 and R4 always being hydrogen, X is hydrogen, a -halogen, a -methoxy or a -ethoxy, Y is keto or b -hydroxyl, and one A is hydrogen and the other hydroxyl. The compositions may be in the form of tablets, aqueous suspensions, elixirs, ointments and salves and injectable compositions. Specification 870,388 is referred to.
