Abstract
A stereoselective synthesis of o-23,24-dinor-5alpha-cholan-2alpha,3alp ha,22-triyl triacetate 9 was achieved in 44% overall yield in nine ste ps starting from 3beta-hydroxyandrost-5-en-17-one 8. The important fea tures of this synthesis are the modified Wittig reaction on the 17-oxo steroid 8 and the stereospecific generation of the chiral centre at C -20 by a resin-catalysed ene reaction on (Z)-3beta, p-tolylsulfonyloxy pregna-5,17(20)-diene 11.
