Participants

Reaction Steps

Under initial cooling, 5 ml of trifluoroacetic acid is poured over 896 mg (1.42 mmol) of N-(1,1-dimethylethoxycarbonyl)valine [11β,21-dihydroxy-3,20-dioxo-6α-methyl-17-propionyloxy-pregna-1,4-dien-21-yl] ester, and it is stirred for 1-2 hours at room temperature. Then, the trifluoroacetic acid is evaporated in a vacuum. The residue is taken up in a little dichloromethane, 5 ml of toluene is added and then evaporated to dryness in a vacuum. The residue is crystallized. 728 mg (80%) of valine [11β,21-dihydroxy-3,20-dioxo-6α-methyl-17-propionyloxy -pregna-1,4-dien-21-yl] ester trifluoroacetate is obtained. Melting point 148° C.
