After completed reaction, the reaction mixture is combined with saturated ammonium chloride solution, diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water, and dried over sodium sulfate. The resultant 17α-ethynyl-3-methoxy-18-methyl-3,5,15-estratrien-17β-ol is stirred, in the form of the crude product, in 70 ml of methanol and 6 ml of water with 3 g of oxalic acid for 10 minutes under reflux. The reaction mixture is introduced into ice/water. The thus-precipitated product is suctioned off, dissolved in ethyl acetate, washed with water, and dried over sodium sulfate. Recrystallization from acetone/hexane yields 1.9 g of 17α-ethynyl-17β-hydroxy-18-methyl-4,15-estradien-3-one, melting point 197.8° C.
