Procedure

To a clear solution of 3β-acetoxy-7α-bromoandrost-5-ene-17-one, 25, (0.5 g) in methanol (20 mL) was added silica gel (2.0 g, 70-230 mesh) and the mixture was stirred for 2 h at room temperature. The methanolic solution was cooled, neutralized with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, and filtered on a thin bed of celite. The clear filtrate was cooled at 0° C. to obtain the white crystalline 7-methoxy derivative 26. Yield 0.32 g (72.7%), m.p. 175-78° C. The NMR spectrum of the white solid showed 55% 7β-methoxy- and 45% 7α-methoxy-compound. Spectral data described below were deduced from the spectrum of the mixture. The biological activity was assayed as the mixture (Table I).
