Procedure
2β-(2'-Chloroethoxy)-20,20-ethylenedioxy-3α-hydroxy-5α-pregnan-11-one (500 mg.) was dissolved in morpholine (15 ml.) and the solution heated on a steam-bath for 24 hours. The morpholine was removed by evaporating in vacuo and the resulting red oil was dissolved in 35% aqueous acetic acid (25 ml.). This solution was heated on a steam-bath for 21/2 hours. Water (50 ml.) was added and the slightly turbid solution filtered through Kieselguhr. The filtrate was made alkaline with 10N-potassium hydroxide and the precipitate extracted into ether (100 ml.). The ether extract was washed with water until the aqueous layer was neutral, dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and evaporated to give the title compound as a white foam (250 mg.) [α]D + 82° (c 0.98).
