Abstract

Two polyhydroxylated Δ13-17,17-dialkyl-18-norsteroids were prepared by BF3·Et2O/Ac2O-promoted regioselective E-ring cleavage/ 1-2 hydride shift/ Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement of furostanols derived from the steroid sapogenins diosgenin and sarsasapogenin. Details of the spectroscopic characterization are discussed. (Grapg Presented).
