Procedure
A mixture of sodium acetate (1 g), absolute chloroform (30 ml), formaldehyde diethyl acetal (30 ml, 0.24 mol), phosphoryl chloride (3.8 ml, 40 mmol), and 1,2β-methylenandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione (0.806 g, 2.7 mmol) is stirred at reflux for about 7 hours, i.e. until the starting material has disappeared. The suspension is allowed to cool and under vigorous stirring a saturated sodium carbonate solution is added dropwise until the pH of the aqueous layer becomes alkaline (about 1 hour). The organic layer is separated, neutralized with water, and dried with sodium sulfate. After concentration under reduced pressure the oily residue is purified by column chromatography on silica gel using n-hexane/ethylacetate as eluant. The pure title compound is obtained in 60% yield (0.503 g).
