Procedure
20 ml of acetic anhydride is instilled at room temperature in 10.0 g of 1β,15α-dihydroxy-1α-methyl-5α-androstane-3,17-dione in 40 ml of pyridine. The reaction mixture is stirred into ice/water after 2.5 hours. The precipitated product is suctioned off, dissolved in ethyl acetate and washed neutral with water. The crude product is chromatographed on silica gel with a hexane-ethyl acetate gradient. 8.6 g of 15α-acetoxy-1β-hydroxy-1α-methyl-5α-androstane-3,17-dione is obtained. Melting point 170.0° C.
