Abstract

A route for synthesis of steroidal 5(10)α-epoxy-9(11)-ene from 11β-functionalized estr-5(10)-ene via epoxidation of 5(10)-ene and then introduction of 9(11)-ene was reported. The effect of 11β-hydroxy and acyloxy groups on stereoselective epoxidation of 5(10)-ene as well as the effect of 5(10)-epoxide configuration on some reactions of corresponding 11β-substitutes were described. A 11β-phenyl-4,9-estradiene compound has been synthesized from the 9(11)-ene-5(10)α-epoxide intermediate obtained by this route.
