Abstract
6 beta-Methyl-3 beta,5 alpha-dihydroxy-16 alpha,17 alpha-cyclohexanopr egnan-20-one 1, when electrolysed in the presence of 4-substituted TEM PO in a two-phase system of CH2Cl2-aqueous NaBr, is oxidised chemosele ctively and in high yield into 6 beta-methyl-5 alpha-hydroxy-16 alpha, 17 alpha-cyclohexanopregnan-3,20-dione 2.
