The present invention relates to a process for preparing obeticholic acid Form 1, comprising the steps of reacting 3α,7-ditrimethylsilyloxy-5β-chol-6-en-24-oic acid methyl ester with CH3CHO to form E- or E/Z-3α-hydroxy-6-ethylidene-7-keto-5β-cholan-24-oic acid methyl ester; reacting E- or E/Z-3α-hydroxy-6-ethylidene-7-keto-5β-cholan-24-oic acid methyl ester with NaOH to form E- or E/Z-3α-hydroxy-6-ethylidene-7-keto-5β-cholan-24-oic acid; reacting E- or E/Z-3α-hydroxy-6-ethylidene-7-keto-5β-cholan-24-oic acid with Pd/C and hydrogen gas to form 3α-hydroxy-6α-ethyl-7-keto-5β-cholan-24-oic acid; reacting 3α-hydroxy-6α-ethyl-7-keto-5β-cholan-24-oic acid with NaBH4 to form crystalline obeticholic acid, and converting crystalline obeticholic acid to obeticholic acid Form 1.
