Substituents angular

The 1950s and 1960s saw the development of orally active progestins based on the synthesis of steroids that lack the C19-angular methyl substituent (19-norsteroids). The commercial production of these compounds for the regulation of menstmal disorders began in 1957, and for oral contraception in 1960. [Pg.414]

Interest in the synthesis of 19-norsteroids as orally active progestins prompted efforts to remove the C19 angular methyl substituent of readily available steroid precursors. Industrial applications include the direct conversion of androsta-l,4-diene-3,17-dione [897-06-3] (92) to estrone [53-16-7] (26) by thermolysis in mineral oil at about 500°C (136), and reductive elimination of the angular methyl group of the 17-ketal of the dione [2398-63-2] (93) with lithium biphenyl radical anion to form the 17-ketal of estrone [900-83-4] (94) (137). [Pg.429]

Besides the aforementioned chemical methods, microbial degradations have been used to remove the C19 angular methyl substituent of readily available steroid precursors. For example, 19-hydroxysterols, such as 3P-acetoxy-19-hydroxy-5-cholestene [750-59-4] (107), can be converted to estrone by Mocardia sp. in yields up to 70% (120,145,146). [Pg.430]

However, the removal of the angular substituent can be made a very efficient process by first oxidizing the 19-hydroxyl to the aldehyde or acid stage. This procedure, first described by Haglwara" has since been applied to a large variety of 19-hydroxy steroids. [Pg.272]

Methylbenzotriazole derivatives with an aminoethylene substituent in position 4 also regioselectively produce only the angularly annelated 7-ethoxycarbonyl-6-0X0-6,9-dihydro-2-methyl-2//-triazolo[4,5-/i]quinoline 158. Under alkaline hydrolysis the ester 158 yielded the corresponding acid 159 (90CCC1038, 92FA1001). [Pg.254]

Steroids not readily accessible by modification of plant starting materials, for example, those possessing unusual substituents at the angular positions, are made available by total synthesis. [Pg.166]

Cyclopropanes are now readily available and have become useful, through hydrogenolysis, for synthesis of compounds containing quaternary carbons, em-dialkyl, r-butyl, and angular-methyl substituents (779), compounds often available only with difficulty otherwise (.77,5i,55,750,756), Cyclopropanes can be formed in good yields by hydrogenation of cyclopropenes (26). [Pg.174]

The 1,6-intramolecular addition of unsymmetrical allylsilanes to conjugated dienones proceeded to give a trans relation between the angular substituents and the vinyl groups (complete 1,3-asymmetric induction). Ethylaluminum dichloride has been most successfully used in all reactions described35-53. [Pg.950]
