Abstract
A preparative method was proposed for the preparation of regn-4-ene-9a lpha,16alpha,17alpha-triol-3,20-dione 16alpha,17alpha-acetonide (2) fr om 5alpha-H-pregn-16-en-3beta-ol-20-one (1). The kev stage in the prop osed sequence of the reactions is the microbiological 9alpha-hydroxyla tion and introduction of the 4-en-3-one grouping into the molecule of 1 by R- and S-dissociative forms of the Rhodococcus sp. strain.
