6,19-carbon-bridged steroids. Synthesis of 6,19-methano-progesterone
6,19-Methanoprogesterone (4) was synthesized in nine steps from the readily available 3β,20β-diacetyloxy-5α-bromo-6,19,-oxidopregnane (5) in 14% overall yield. The additional carbon atom was introduced by reaction of a C-19 aldehyde with Ph3PCHOCH3 under salt free conditions and subsequent hydrolysi...

Sumario: | 6,19-Methanoprogesterone (4) was synthesized in nine steps from the readily available 3β,20β-diacetyloxy-5α-bromo-6,19,-oxidopregnane (5) in 14% overall yield. The additional carbon atom was introduced by reaction of a C-19 aldehyde with Ph3PCHOCH3 under salt free conditions and subsequent hydrolysis to give the homologous aldehyde. Intramolecular addition of the newly incorporated carbonyl (C-19a) to the olefinic C-6 in ring B was achieved by means of a Prins reaction with TiCl4 as Lewis acid. |
