PROCESS FOR PREPARING 3-ENOL ETHERS OF 11'-HYDROXY-'4-PREGNENE-3-ONES DERIVATIVES THEREOF
3-enol ethers of 11.beta.-hydroxy-.DELTA.4-pregnene-3-ones are prepared by reacting triethylorthoacetate with an 11.beta.-hydroxy-.DELTA.4-pregnene-3-one in a solvent which is at least 40% by weight or more ethanol and 60% by weight or less of a compatible oxygenated hydrocarbon liquid in the presen...

Summary: | 3-enol ethers of 11.beta.-hydroxy-.DELTA.4-pregnene-3-ones are prepared by reacting triethylorthoacetate with an 11.beta.-hydroxy-.DELTA.4-pregnene-3-one in a solvent which is at least 40% by weight or more ethanol and 60% by weight or less of a compatible oxygenated hydrocarbon liquid in the presence of an acid catalyst. This reaction forms a basis of a process for forming 6-halo-derivatives, particularly 6-chloro-.DELTA.1,4,6-pregnatrien-11.beta.,17.alpha.,21-triol-3,20-dione. |
