Procedure
A solution of 21-bromo-3β-ethynyl-3α-hydroxy-5β-pregnan-20-one (150 mg, 0.356 mmol), 2-mercaptoethanol (31 μL, 0.445 mmol), and triethylamine (62 μL, 0.445 mmol) in 5 mL of THF was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic layer was washed with sat. aq. NaCl, dried with Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo resulting in 3β-ethynyl-3α-hydroxy-21-hydroxyethylthio-5β-pregnan-20-one (141 mg) as a white solid; mp 122-126° C.; TLC Rf (hexane:acetone 3:1)=0.11.
