Synthetic approaches to 19-norsteroids

6β-Acetoxy-3β-benzyloxy-5α-androstan-5-ol-17-one (51), prepared from androstenolone, underwent Westphalen rearrangement to give the 5β-methyl-Δ9(10)-compound. Lead tetraacetate functionalisation of the 5β-methyl group in the 3β-hydroxyl derivative (53) gave 6β-acetoxy-3β,5-oxaethano-19-nor-5β-andros...
