The procedure of selective hydrogenation with gaseous tritium of 16 al
pha,17 alpha-cyclohex-3'-en-pregna-1,4-dien-3,20-dione (St0) has been
elaborated, and isotopically labelled 16 alpha,17 alpha-cyclohexanopre
gna-1,4-dien-3,20-dione (St1), 16 alpha,17 alpha-cyclohex-3'-en-pregn-
4-en-3,20-dione (St2), 16 alpha,17 alpha-cyclohexanopregn-4-en-3,20-di
one (St3) with molar radioactivity of 41, 44, 85 Ci/mmol, respectively
, obtained. By hydrogenation with gaseous hydrogen, tritium labelled (
St3) was converted to 16 alpha,17 alpha-cyclohexano-5 alpha-pregnan-3,
20-dione (5 alpha-St4) and 16 alpha,17 alpha-cyclohexano-5 beta-pregna
n-3,20-dione (5 beta-St4).
