Procedure

A solution of 125.4 g of 7α-(5-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxypentyl)-estr-4-ene-3,17-dione in 625 ml of methanol and 347 ml of water is stirred with 694 ml of glacial acetic acid for 2.5 hours at 50° C. After the concentration by evaporation at 60° C. in a vacuum, 94.1 g of crude 7α-(5-hydroxypentyl)-estr-4-ene-3,17-dione is obtained as oil.
