Abstract

The invention comprises steroids of the general formula <FORM:0923736/IV(a)/1> wherein R represents a keto or b -hydroxy radical, and the corresponding 3-semicarbazones and 3-oximes, and the preparation of 17a -ethyl-17b -hydroxy-D 1,4-androstadiene-3,11-dione by treating 3a -acetoxy-5b -androsta-11, 17-dione with an alkali metal acetylide to form 17a - ethynyl - 3a ,17b -dihydroxy-5b -androstan-11-one, catalytically hydrogenating this compound to form the corresponding 17a -ethyl compound, bromoxidising the 17a -ethyl compound with an N-bromoamide to form 4b -bromo - 17a - ethyl-17b -hydroxy-5b -androsta-3,11-dione, brominating this compound to form 2b ,4b - dibromo - 17a -ethyl-17b -hydroxy-5b -androsta-3,11-dione and dehydrobrominating this compound, the preparation of 17a -ethyl - 11b ,17a - dihydroxy - D 1,4 - androstadien-3-one by converting 17a -ethyl-17b -hydroxy-D 1,4-androstadiene-3,11-dione into the corresponding 3-semicarbazone or oxime, reducing the 11-keto group to an 11b -hydroxy group with an alkali metal borohydride, and regenerating the 3-keto group by reaction with pyruvic acid. Specifications 816,909, 923,737 and 923,738 are referred to.
