Procedure

3α,6α-Dihydroxy-5β-cholestan-24-one (I) is mesylated in a conventional manner to form 3α,6α-dihydroxy-5β-cholestan-24-one dimesylate (VI). Then the compound (VI) is reacted with an inorganic salt such as potassium chloride, sodium chloride or lithium chloride to give 3-chlorocholest-5-en-24-one (VII).
