Synthesis of 5β-cholestane-3α, 7α, 12α, 25-tetrol and 5β-cholestane-3α, 7α, 12α, 24ξ, 25-pentol

This paper describes syntheses of 5β-cholestane-3α, 7α, 12α, 25-tetrol and 5β-cholestane-3α, 7α, 12α, 24ξ, 25-pentol which give higher yields than previously published methods. In addition, 5β-cholestane-3α, 7α, 12α, 24ξ, 25-pentol was synthesized by a different procedure, namely via performic acid...
