250 mg of 16βfluoro-5-α-androsten-17-one in 50 ml of ethanol was treated with 50 mg of 5% palladium on carbon and hydrogen gas for 21/2 hours. The reaction mixture, as indicated by the IR, is compatible with 16β-fluoro-5α-androstan-17-one. This crude product was treated with 5 ml methanol and 5 ml of 1N methanolic KOH for one hour. The mixture was partitioned between methylene chloride and water and subjected to HPLC as indicated above. Crystallization of the less mobile component from methanol gave 30 mg of 16α-fluoro-5α-androstan-17-one as prismatic needles, melting point 148°-150° C.
