Reaction Steps

Substituting 4-methyl-4,6-androstadiene-3,17,19-trione, 17β-hydroxy-17α-methyl-4,6-androstadiene-3,19-dione and 17β-hydroxy-17α-propinyl-4,6-androstadiene-3,19-dione for the 4,6-androstadiene-3,17,19-trione above results in the formation of 4α,7α-dimethyl-5-androstene-3,17,19-trione, 17β-hydroxy-7α,17α-dimethyl-5-androstene-3,19-dione, and 17β-hydroxy-7α-methyl-17α-propinyl-5-androstene-3,19-dione, respectively.
