Procedure
200 mg. of natural 17β-acetoxy-18-methyl-17α-ethinyl-15α,16α-methylene-4-estren-3-one is mixed in 20 ml. of absolute tetrahydrofuran with 670 mg. of lithium tri-tert.-butoxyalanate and agitated for 1 hour at room temperature. The mixture is then worked up analogously to Example 17. After chromatography on silica gel, 160 mg. of natural 3β-hydroxy-17β-acetoxy-18-methyl-17α-ethinyl-15α,16α-methylene-4-estrene is obtained.
