Procedure

To a solution of 16α-Bromo-5-androsten-17-one (7.92 g, 20 mmoles) in pyridine (300 ml) and water (64 ml) in an oxygen atmosphere was added 36 ml (36 mmoles) of 1N NaOH. After stirring the mixture for 15 minutes at room temperature under O2, it was added to 1L of ice water containing 330 ml of concentrated HCl. The crystallized precipitate which formed was filtered off, washed with water, and recrystallized from methanol as leaflets (2,80 g), mp 168°-172°. HPLC of the mother liquor on a silica gel column using isopropyl alcohol n-hexane as eluent furnished an additional 1.4 g of light yellow prisms, mp 170°-174°. The total yield of 16α-ol was 3.94 g (68.4%).
