摘要:
A process for the preparation of a compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms optionally substituted by halogen or a nitrogen or oxygen function and alkenyl and alkynyl of 2 to 4 carbon atoms, R.sub.2 is alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms and the A, B, C and D rings are optionally substituted by at least one member of the group consisting of optionally protected --OH or .dbd.0, halogen, alkyl and alkoxy of 1 to 4 carbon atoms and alkenyl and alkynyl of 2 to 4 carbon atoms comprising reacting a compound of the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 and the A, B, C and D rings are defined as above with an oxidizing agent in the presence of water and an at least partially water-miscible solvent to obtain a compound of the formula ##STR3## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 and the A, B, C and D rings are defined as above, subjecting the latter to a solvolysis in a basic or acidic media and optionally subjecting the product to a deprotection reaction of any protected --OH or .dbd.0 groups to obtain the compound of formula I and novel intermediates.
摘要:
A process for crystallizing a pharmaceutically active steroidal product, without mechanical procedure, to obtain a homogeneous granulometric class which may be prepared beforehand, wherein the product which is desired to be crystallized is dissolved in a ternary mixture made of a lipophilic solvent, a hydrophilic solvent and a surface active agent at a temperature close to the boiling point of the mixture of solvents and wherein the mixture of solvents is allowed to revert to a temperature where the crystallization initiates, then, the thus-formed crystals are recovered.

摘要:
A fluorine-containing 3-oxygenated-.DELTA..sup.3,5 -steroid is prepared in a good yield by fluorinating a steroid with a compound of the formula:RCOOFwherein R is a hydrocarbon group.
摘要:
Disclosed is an improved process for the synthesis of 6-bromo-17,21-dihydroxy-3,11,20-trioxo-1,4,-pregnadienes 17,21-diesters. In particular, this invention relates to the conversion of 17,21-dihydroxy-3,11,20-trioxo-1,4-pregnadienes 17,21-diesters to 6-borom-17,21-dihyroxy-3,11,20-trioxo-1,4-pregnadienes-17-21-diesters via bromination under ionic conditions, e.g. bromine in acetic acid.
