2.79 g (11 mmol) of iodine is added to 2.86 g (10 mmol) of androst-4-ene-3,17-dione and 0.875 g (11 mmol) of CuO in 30 ml of glacial acetic acid with stirring at room temperature. The reaction mixture is stirred under nitrogen atmosphere for 24 hours at 60° C. Under reduced pressure, acetic acid is distilled off and the residue is mixed with 50 ml of water. The water phase is extracted 3 times with 50 ml of ethyl acetate each, the combined ethyl acetate phases are washed with sodium thiosulfate solution and dried on sodium sulfate. After concentration by evaporation of the solution, 4.5 g of crude product is obtained. After recrystallization from ethyl acetate, 2.9 g of 2-iodo-androst-4-ene-3,17-dione (70% of theory) of melting point 92° C. is obtained.
