Abstract

The invention comprises the 18,20-lactones of 20b -hydroxy-pregnane-18-acids which are unsubstituted in the 11-position or which contain a free or esterified 11a -hydroxyl group, an 11-oxo group, a 9, 11-double bond or a 9, 11b -oxido group, and which are substituted in the 3-position by a free or esterified hydroxyl group or a free or ketalized oxo group. They may be of the 5a - or 5b -series and may be 19- nor compounds, and they may contain double bonds and further substituents in one or more of positions 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 21. Substituents referred to are oxido groups, free or functionally converted hydroxyl or oxo groups, alkyl groups and halogen atoms. The lactones may be prepared by the process described in Specifications 973,143 and 973,144. In the products, esterified 11a -hydroxyl groups may be hydrolyzed and the free 11a -ols oxidized to 11-ketones; D 5-3-ketals may be hydrolyzed to D 4-3-ketones or these ketalized; 3-acylates may be hydrolyzed and oxidized to 3-ketones; D 4-double bonds (and possibly D 1-double bonds) may be introduced by bromination and dehydrobromination; D 5-3-acylates may be converted to D 4-3-ketones; oxygen functions may be introduced into the 11-position by microbiological oxidation, especially with fungi of the order Mucorales, Rhizopus or with Aspergillus ochraceus and 11a -hydroxyl groups may be eliminated by conversion to sulphonic acid esters and subsequent treatment with an anhydrous base, to form a 9, 11-double bond. Examples are given, and the conversion of products of the invention to aldosterone and its derivatives is described. A by-product in one example is 3b -acetoxy-20b -hydroxy-18, 20-oxido-5a -pregnane which on hydrolysis gives the 3b -ol. In another example, -reduction of the lactone of 3b , 20b -dihydroxy 5a -pregnane-18-acid gives 3b , 18,20b -trihydroxy-5a -pregnane. Specification 973,146 also is referred to. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 946,659.
