Reaction Steps

Following essentially the same procedure and substituting 7α-methyl-1,4-androstadiene-3,17-dione and 6α-methyl-1,4-androstadiene-3,17-dione for the 1,4-androstadiene-3,17-dione above results in the preparation of 7α-methyl-1β,2β-methylene-4-androstene-3,17-dione and 6α-methyl-1β,2β-methylene-4-androstene-3,17-dione.
