Reaktionsschritte

1.3 g (3.79 mmoles) of 13-ethyl-11-methylen-17,17-(1,3-propilendioxy)-gon-4-ene (compound XVIIa) were dissolved in acetone (21 ml) under stirring at room temperature. 250 mg of p-toluensulfonic acid monohydrate were added to the solution so obtained and the stirring at room temperature was continued for 17 hours. After this period a saturated solution of sodium bicarbonate (21 ml) was added to the reaction mixture and the organic solvent was evaporated under vacuum. The so obtained aqueous suspension was extracted with dichloromethane (3×30 ml) and the organic extracts dried on sodium sulfate, filtered and evaporated under vacuum to give 0.88 g (3.11 mmoles; yields 82%) of the intermediate 13-ethyl-11-methylen-gon-4-ene (compound XVIII).
