Then, it is cooled to room temperature, slowly added to 200 g of ice, mixed with 400 ml of 2N sulfuric acid, stirred for 1 hour at room temperature, extracted three times with ethyl acetate, the organic phases are washed with water as well as saturated sodium chloride solution, dried on sodium sulfate, concentrated by evaporation in a vacuum and chromatographed on silica gel with hexane/ethyl acetate. 1.37 g of 17-difluoromethylene-estra-1,3,5(10),15-tetraen-3-ol is obtained as colorless crystals with a melting point of 126-127° C., [α]D22 =-120.4° (c=0.505% in pyridine).
