17β-Cyano-17α-hydroxyandrosta-4,9(11)-dien-3-one (I, 3,316 gm) and 4-dimethlaminopyridine (63 mg) are slurried in dry THF (5 ml), treated with TEA (1.9 ml) and immediately cooled in an ice-acetone bath. With rapid stirring chloromethyldimethylchlorosilane (1.54 ml) is added dropwise. After 1 hr, the mixture is allowed to warm to 20°-25° over the course of 2 hrs, giving a mixture containing 17β-cyano-17α-hydroxyandrosta-4,9(11)-dien-3-one 17-(chloromethyl)dimethylsilyl ether (II). This mixture is transferred dropwise (10 min) to a solution of LDA (which is prepared from diisopropyl amine [7.0 ml] and 7-butyllithium-hexanes [1.6 molar, 26.6 ml, 42.6 mmol]) in dry THF (75 ml), stirring rapidly in a dry ice-acetone bath. After stirring 1 hr, the mixture is quenched with aqueous hydrochloric acid (6M, 25 ml), allowing the exotherm to carry the temperature to about 0°. Water (.50 ml) and methanol (~50 ml) are added, and the mixture is allowed to stir vigorously for 20 hrs at 20°-25°. The product is recovered by filtration and washed successively with water and methanol to give the title compound. A second crop is obtained on concentrating the mother liquors.
